Cerro Coso Begins New Engineering Program

August 26, 2008

The new Engineering Program at Cerro Coso Community College got off to its official start this Fall with Introduction to Engineering, ENGR C110.  This 4 unit class is offered on Monday and Wednesday nights from 5:10 to 8:20 pm in LRC Room 631. This course provides an introduction to the profession of engineering and its connection with society today and in the future.  The development of basic engineering skills for future success in the field will be emphasized.  Engineering disciplines, functions, and employment opportunities will be considered.  Application of the engineering problem solving method, teamwork, and the design process are practiced.  Typical engineering problems will be solved aided by use of computer software. 
 
ENGR C110 Introduction to Engineering is being taught by Adjunct Professor of Engineering Ilia Lyles.  Ilia Lyles is an engineer and works for the Naval Air Warfare Center. 
 
“This class is the first in the series of Engineering classes at Cerro Coso Community College”  says  Dr. John D. Stenger-Smith, Chair of the Science Department. 
 
“This exciting new program will open up a significant number of new employment opportunities both in the new high-tech alternative energy industry and for more traditional engineering fields.  Cerro Coso is passing a major milestone in 2008 as we celebrate our 35th anniversary and look to the future needs of the communities we serve by launching the new engineering program” stated Dr. James Fay, Vice President, Academic Affairs, Cerro Coso College.
 
 
It’s not too late to enroll in this class.  Students can add the class through the first week of September with an instructor signature. For more information call the College at 384-6100.
