Thermofluids I This module provides students with an introduction to the fundamentals of thermodynamics; namely heat, work, perfect gas

laws and the 1st law of thermodynamics. Use of steam tables, basics of pressure and flow rate in fluid mechanics and their units and the mass conservation law, (continuity) are also covered. Basic Mathematics This module provides students with basic mathematical skills and knowledge in algebra, trigonometry, complex number and calculus to enable them to understand and solve engineering problems encountered in the course of studies. It also serves as a foundation for subsequent mathematics modules. Engineering Mathematics I This module equips students with the necessary mathematical knowledge and skills to handle problems encountered in their course of study. Among the topics covered are Differential Calculus, Numerical method and Integral Calculus. Computer Programming This module teaches students how to write structured programmes in C. Among the topics covered are simple data types, input/output, control and loop structures and arrays. Programming assignments and hands-on training in the computer laboratory will be emphasized. Mechanics I This module provides students with an introduction to the basic concepts of engineering mechanics; namely the units and dimensions, equilibrium conditions, friction, kinematics and Newton's laws of motion.
