| What it's about |
Specific learning objectives of this laboratory course are to:
- Illustrate the physical concepts of fluid flows and introduce students to experimental techniques for fluid mechanics
- Foster self-reliance required for open-ended experiments and reduce dependence on a cookbook approach
- Develop the ability to design, conduct experiments, analyze and interpret data
- Encourage creativity in the use of experimental apparatus and data-acquisition
- Develop the ability for team work
- Develop effective communication of technical information
