Professors Wiggins, Gallagher, Hennings, Royce and Werner
Engineering science courses deal with the application of
knowledge gained in the basic sciences to the solution of
engineering problems, using the theories and techniques of
mathematical analysis. The principles learned are later applied
in ship and power plant design. Engineering drafting and
laboratory skills are included in this group of courses. The
extensive use of computers in the engineering and business
communities makes it essential that all Webb graduates be
literate in computer use and skilled in using complex programs.
Some exposure to and practice in varied computer capabilities
are stressed, including scientific and engineering problem
solving, word processing and computer-aided graphics.
PROGRAMMING AND APPLICATIONS This course provides an
introduction to computer programming and focuses on the
development of the logical problem-solving skills that are
essential in engineering. Topics covered include logical
expressions, conditional stat
