Final Exam
Posted: Dec 8, 2012
The final exam is worth 15% according to the syllabus so here is the equation that you can use to see what you need to make on the final exam:

FE = (FCA -  0.85 * CCA)  / 0.15

FE = Grade Needed On Final Exam
FCA = Final Course Average Desired =  90, 80, 70 or 60 for A, B, C, or D
CCA = Current Course Average

Hello Engineers,
 
You will want to make sure that you are in a Math course this semester to ensure that you are progressing toward your degree.
 
The text for EGR111 is the 2nd edition of Foundations of Engineering. This is the same book that we will use in EGR112. Links with ISBN numbers are given above. You will also need a scientific calculator for the course (with sine, cosine, etc.).

 
See you soon,
Dr. B
