Investigations in Engineering or simply IENG (known to some as Fast-Paced Death, is an actual college course offerede at Johns Hopkins University to college students. If you take this course through CTY, get good enough grades (Yes, you actually get grades in this class as opposed to all others according to CTY policy), and pay $300 to JHU, you will get you three college credits from JHU.
In this course you'll find yourself challenged at levels you'd never thought would be possible. You'll go over topics such as:
Fermi Problems,
Design processes,
Stress and Strain,
Euler buckling load/young's modulus,
Statics and Dynamics,
Bridge truss problems,
Chemical Engineering,
Error Propagation,
Expected Values,
Dimensional analysis,
Approximation,
Statistics,
Binary systems/Digital logic,
and Engineering Ethics.
In order to get credit for this class, you might find yourself doing work outside of class, which is against CTY policy. You may get in trouble for it, but sometimes you may get off the hook.
You'll be graded on Lab reports, Oral Presentations, and an two Essays (one, which is actually written before CTY even begins). The culmination of the course is the design and testing of a bridge, constructed of spaghetti and Epoxy.
Despite the intense course load, you will probably form the most tight-knit, close, bro-like hall ever. You need each other's help, and you need everyone to have your back; whether it be writing labs at 2 AM or just to sit next to you while you write a lab at 2 AM for emotional support.
