\n

Engineering Perspectives<\/h4>\n

An introduction to the different engineering majors\u00a0offered at UT<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Computer tools in problem-solving<\/h4>\n

The use of Excel and Matlab to solve engineering problems. Learn more about Engineering Fundamentals 105<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Teamwork<\/h4>\n

Because learning to be an effective team member can be just as difficult as learning the physical laws and computational tools of engineering, students are trained in the ways of the collaborative team process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Communication<\/h4>\n

Students’s communication skills are honed through written project reports and oral presentations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
