Resources for Current Undergrad Engineering Students

Current Engineering Course Syllabi

Syllabi for current and recent engineering courses are available here for your review. These are color-coded (Fall semester=tan, Winter or J-Term=blue, and Spring semester=green). You can review these to better understand course learning objectives, methods, schedule and reports expected as a description of the instructor.

BlackBoard

BlackBoard is the online learning system used extensively by Engineering professors to provide material and accept input during the course of a semester. Click on the image at left to sign in to Blackboard using your UST username and password. For more information, go to About Blackboard.

Library Subject Guides

The UST Libraries maintain an extensive number of Subject Guides that make your research efforts more productive. You may examine the Engineering Subject Guide here.

About the Engineering Labs

The link to the Engineering Labs gives you additional information about the labs and their equipment, including computer software.

"Where to Buy Stuff"

So you are working in the lab on a project and you are faced with the task of acquiring materials and parts for your project.  You would start by checking with Lab Tech, but sometimes the in-house inventory does not have it. Where to you go then to get some mild steel? or plastic? or a gear? or even a simple piece of plumbing pipe or bolt?  You can often find the answer in "Where to Buy Stuff", a compendium of local suppliers as well as some national sources for both mechanical and electrical engineering projects.

Advising

Each UST engineering student is assigned an academic advisor who is one of the full time engineering professors. You may go to that person whenever you are facing choices such as course sequences or just when you have a difficult issue to talk over.
