Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Use computation to analyze data: read, analyze, and visualize engineering-related data. Create effective, understandable visualizations of data. Implement theoretical engineering concepts using appropriate data structures (e.g., lists, arrays, dictionaries) and program flows (e.g., functions, loops, conditionals). Apply existing computational modules to perform optimization and numerical simulation.
