This course is designed to introduce students to the operating systems of computers.  This includes the fundamental structure of a computer system and logic frameworks.  Students will initially be instructed in the writing of algorithms and flowcharts.   Algorithms and flowcharts will then be converted into computer programs using  the PASCAL programming language.  

This course combines essential elements of applied mathematics, specifically the concepts of trigonometry and vectors, to develop students' competence in interpretation, analysis and problem solving.

The main objective is to highlight the use of these topics in the design and solutions of mathematical models as applied in engineering.
