+ | '''COE 2001''' is a 2 credit class in statics offered by the College of Engineering. COE 2001 is an important class for many engineering majors, including [[Mechanical Engineering|mechanical engineering]], [[Aerospace Engineering|aerospace engineering]], and [[Civil Engineering|civil engineering]]. |
||
− | '''COE 2001''' covers the mechanics of systems at rest, including forces and moments, equilibrium, structures, distributed forces, and friction. The course is foundational for many engineering majors. |
