Upon completion of this course, students will be able to (1) Discover the metallurgical characteristics of metals and its alloys, phase diagrams and its microstructure. (2) Design the required heat treatments for any particular application. (3) Know and apply adequate materials selection methodology.

The aim of this course is for students to develop abilities of programming for the solution of engineering problems using MATLAB as support software.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to solve problems that involve the relations between the geometry and the movements of a mechanism and the forces that produce those movements.

By the end of this course, students will be able to use their knowledge and skills of parametric design to develop and analyze the function and performance of parts, assemblies and mechanisms.

By the end of this course, students will be able to solve problems by applying the principles that characterize static and moving fluids to analyze and evaluate hydraulic systems.

The aim of this course is for students to operate and apply the principles of energy in the form of heat and work in reversible and irreversible thermal processes to analyze and interpret their behavior.

By the end of this course, students will be able to solve problems to calculate the stress and strain in mechanical elements and basic structural members, typically found in the daily practice of Engineering.

The aim of this course is to solve problems with the physical behavior of the materials used in the manufacturing of structural elements and mechanical members commonly found in practice.

Students will be able to solve problems involving particles and rigid bodies in static equilibrium by using a vectorial approach to the relation between the forces acting on them.
