Dummy registration for Science Honors Program. Not an official course registration.
Bridge between the science-oriented, high school way of thinking and the engineering point of view. Fundamental concepts of math and science reviewed and re-framed in an engineering context; numerous examples of each concept drawn from all disciplines of engineering represented at Columbia. Non-technical issues of importance in professional engineering practice such as ethics, engineering project management, and societal impact.
Only open to Columbia Engineering first-year undergraduate students or second-year transfer students. Lab fee: $150.
The PDL course aims to enhance and expand Columbia Engineering graduate students' interpersonal, professional, and leadership skills, through five core sessions, covering (1) in-person communication skills; (2) resume; (3) business writing; (4) social media and the job search; and (5) academic and professional ethics and integrity. ENGI E4000 also requires 5 elective sessions to further students' development based on their personal interests. Students must select at least one life management elective and one interview elective. This course is offered at the Pass/D/Fail grading option.

Intended to build familiarity with using Python for ingesting, analyzing, visualizing, and interpreting data. Includes data ingesting techniques, using libraries (pandas and numpy), data analytics, machine learning (using SciKit-Learn), visualization, and big data analytics (Spark).
Applies core tools of Executive Master of Science Program to development or design challenge in concentration area. Integrates learning to practice the application of new skills. Students can propose a challenge or join an existing challenge proposed by faculty.
Research Course for Master's Students. Students must be nominated by a faculty member. The research credits may not be counted towards the credits required for the Master’s degree.
English communication proficiency is important for academic achievement and career success. Columbia Engineering provides English communication instruction for students who would like to improve their communication skills in English. In a small group setting (15-20 students), enrollees will obtain opportunities to interact with the instructor and fellow classmates to improve communication skills.
Strategic and tactical aspects of communication for effective planning, creation, and execution of communication with impact. Prepares students for doctoral program milestones (poster sessions, conference presentations, dissertation proposals, and defense, job talks, and professional lectures). Focus on (1) describing technical research to various audiences (2) crafting compelling narratives and storytelling; (3) understanding the power of effective communication in advancing academic or industry careers.
