Engineering (ENGR)

ENGR 295    Introduction to Research Methodology    1 Hour

To familiarize Ogden Research Scholars and other research oriented students with the fundamentals of choosing a research topic, performing a bibliographical search on a subject, topic, classification of instruments, data taking, data reduction, professional ethics and other research oriented topics. The common points of research methodology in the different scientific areas will be accentuated. Examples will be drawn from the various disciplines. Use of computers will be emphasized. (Course does not count toward any major or minor.) Note:Ogden Research Scholar, or 3.2 grade point average at the end of the freshman year, or Ogden College faculty member recommendation is required.
