Important Notes

If you did not take Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U) in high school, please identify yourself to the WINONE Office for First-Year Engineering by sending an email to WINONE@uwindsor.ca. After review, you will likely be enrolled in alternate math courses.

Required Course Notes

Students entering all four-year undergraduate engineering programs will be automatically enrolled for the following five required courses:

GENG 1101
GENG 1102
MATH 1270
MATH 1720
PHYS 1400

Required Courses

GENG 1102: Engineering Graphics

GENG 1101: Engineering I

MATH 1270: Linear Algebra (Engineering)

This course will cover linear systems, linear transformations, matrix algebra, determinants, vectors in Rn, dot product, orthogonalization, diagonalization, eigenvectors and eigenvalues, in the context of and with an emphasis on a broad range of applications in Science and Engineering. (Prerequisite: MATH-1280 or both Ontario Grade 12 Advanced Functions (MHF4U) and Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U)) (Antirequisite: MATH-1250, or MATH-1260.) (3 lectures hours, 1 tutorial hour per week.)

MATH 1720: Differential Calculus

This course will cover trigonometric functions and identities, inverse trigonometric functions, limits and continuity, derivatives and applications, mean value theorem, indeterminate forms and l’Hôpital’s rule, antiderivatives and an introduction to definite integrals. This course is for students who have taken both Ontario Grade 12 Advanced Functions (MHF4U) and Ontario Grade 12 Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U). Students who do not have credit for MCV4U should take MATH-1760. (Prerequisites: Ontario Grade 12 Advanced Functions (MHF4U) and Ontario Grade 12 Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U) or MATH-1780.) (Antirequisite: MATH-1760.) (3 lecture hours, 1 tutorial hour per week.)
