ENGR 1: Want to Be an Engineer?
This course is designed for you if you are a new student who has a hypothesis that you want to be a scientist, mathematician, or engineer but don't yet know what you want to major in. As a scientist, you know that you need data to test your hypothesis. As a design thinker, you know that there is no way forward except to be exposed to different things and weigh the results. As a potential engineer, you know that you need lots of information to make a decision. Each week a panel of faculty from STEM majors in the School of Engineering, the School of Humanities & Sciences, and Stanford Earth will present with the goal of helping you discover if their field is right for you.

ENGR 2: Stanford Summer Engineering Academy
Offered in August prior to start of fall quarter for incoming first-year students participating in the Stanford Summer Engineering Academy (SSEA). This course is comprised of two parallel tracks: One focused on the development and practice of critical problem solving in Computer Science; a second focused on providing a strong foundation in Mathematics. Based on skills developed in both tracks, students also explore the breadth and depth of engineering disciplines from faculty across the School of Engineering. Available by application only.

ENGR 14: Intro to Solid Mechanics
Introduction to engineering analysis using the principles of engineering solid mechanics. Builds on the math and physical reasoning concepts in
Physics 41 to develop skills in evaluation of engineered systems across a variety of fields. Foundational ideas for more advanced solid mechanics courses such as ME80 or
CEE101A. Interactive lecture sessions focused on mathematical application of key concepts, with weekly complementary lab session on testing and designing systems that embody these concepts. Limited enrollment, subject to instructor approval. Pre-requisite:
Physics 41.

ENGR 40M: An Intro to Making: What is EE
Is a hands-on class where students learn to make stuff. Through the process of building, you are introduced to the basic areas of EE. Students build a "useless box" and learn about circuits, feedback, and programming hardware, a light display for your desk and bike and learn about coding, transforms, and LEDs, a solar charger and an EKG machine and learn about power, noise, feedback, more circuits, and safety. And you get to keep the toys you build. Prerequisite:
CS 106A.

ENGR 60: Engineering Economics and Sustainability (CEE 146S)
Engineering Economics is a subset of the field of economics that draws upon the logic of economics, but adds that analytical power of mathematics and statistics. The concepts developed in this course are broadly applicable to many professional and personal decisions, including making purchasing decisions, deciding between project alternatives, evaluating different processes, and balancing environmental and social costs against economic costs. The concepts taught in this course will be increasingly valuable as students climb the carrier ladder in private industry, a non-governmental organization, a public agency, or in founding their own startup. Eventually, the ability to make informed decisions that are based in fundamental analysis of alternatives is a part of every career. As such, this course is recommended for engineering and non-engineering students alike. This course is taught exclusively online in every quarter it is offered. (Prerequisites:
MATH 19 or 20 or approved equivalent.)

ENGR 62X: Introduction to Optimization (Accelerated) (MS&E 111X, MS&E 211X)
Optimization theory and modeling. The role of prices, duality, optimality conditions, and algorithms in finding and recognizing solutions. Perspectives: problem formulation, analytical theory, computational methods, and recent applications in engineering, finance, and economics. Theories: finite dimensional derivatives, convexity, optimality, duality, and sensitivity. Methods: simplex and interior-point, gradient, Newton, and barrier. Prerequisite:
