Engineering Fundamentals And Technical Proficiency:

The College of Engineering is designed to establish a strong foundation in engineering fundamentals and technical proficiency. Students start by building a deep understanding of core engineering disciplines and gain hands-on experience in problem-solving and innovation. This technical base prepares students for a successful career in the dynamic field of engineering.

Real-World Applications And Industry Partnerships:

Beyond the classroom, our College of Engineering places a significant emphasis on real-world applications and industry partnerships. Students have opportunities to work on engineering projects, collaborate with engineering firms, and engage in research with cutting-edge technology. These experiences not only enhance their practical engineering skills but also provide valuable insights into the industry.

Global Engineering Challenges And International Collaborations:

The College of Engineering at Los Angeles City University is committed to addressing global engineering challenges and fostering international collaborations. Our curriculum explores international engineering practices and encourages students to engage in projects with global impact. Additionally, we offer study abroad programs and collaborate with engineers from around the world, enabling students to gain a global perspective on engineering.

Engineering ethics examines and sets the obligations by engineers to society, to their clients, and to the profession. As a scholarly discipline, it is closely related to subjects such as the philosophy of science, the philosophy of engineering, and the ethics of technology.


Latest developments in engineering discusses about the latest trends in engineering which keep on adding new subjects and new versions of old subjects and techniques.


This course covers the basic methods for obtaining numerical solutions with a digital computer. Included are methods for the solution of algebraic and transcendental equations, simultaneous linear equations, ordinary and partial differential equations, and curve fitting techniques. The methods are compared with respect to computational efficiency and accuracy.


This course offers a comprehensive yet practical exploration of basic electrical and electronic concepts, hands-on applications, and troubleshooting. The course focuses on fundamental principles and their applications to solving real circuit analysis problems, and devotes six chapters to examining electronic devices.


This course serves as an introduction to engineering management. Topics include Introduction, Planning, Organizing, Financial Accounting And Analysis, Marketing Management, Engineering Management In The New Millennium, Ethics In Engineering/Business Management and Globalization.

This course is about the design and implementation of real times software for the control of mechanical systems. The most appealing aspect of this course is the inclusion of useable C & C++ code, Matlab applications, and BridgeVIEW.


This course treats topics by extending concepts and procedures a step or two beyond elementary mechanics of materials and emphasizes the physical view -- mathematical complexity is not used where it is not needed.


This course is to introduce the basic principles of heat and mass transfer with emphasis on their analysis and applications to practical engineering problems. After completing this course you will be able to identify and analysis thermal processes involving heat conduction, convection and radiation and mass transfer by molecular diffusion.


This courses discusses the stress analysis and design of machine elements under conditions of: shock, impact, inertial forces, initial and residual stresses, corrosion environments, wear, elevated temperatures (creep), and low temperatures (brittle fracture). Hydrodynamic lubrication. Applications to the design of: journal bearings, clutches, brakes, couplings, and linkages.


The integration of electronic engineering, electrical engineering, computer technology and control engineering - mechatronics - forms a crucial part in the design, manufacture and maintenance of a wide range of engineering products and processes. This course provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to the application of electronic control systems in mechanical and electrical engineering.
