Course Summary
Through a multidisciplinary approach, this course aims to introduce and contextualise the fundamental science that underpins engineering. This comprises three key areas of introductory physical chemistry, kinematics, and electronic circuits. Introductory physical chemistry will cover nomenclature, molecular structure and stoichiometric reactions. In kinematics you will develop an understanding of work and of the conservation of energy. Electronic circuits will introduce you to Ohm's Law, hence the consideration of electrical potential, current, resistance and capacitance. You will have the opportunity to revisit and extend one of these key areas in later studies, in your chosen engineering specialisation.
