FE Exam Prep — Fundamentals of Engineering has a 10+ year history of successfully preparing graduating and recently graduated engineering students, as well as professional engineers, to take the NCEES Fundamentals of Engineering (FE Exam), also referred to as the Engineer-in-Training Exam (EIT).
FE Exam Prep is held on four consecutive Saturdays starting Feb. 4 (8-hours each day), with multiple breaks. The sessions are taught by top instructors from the Cockrell School of Engineering. The synchronous online format (Zoom) allows participants to ask professors detailed questions in real-time. The sessions are recorded so students can review the study sessions and material later.
Faculty will review and explain sample questions and test-taking tips on:
- Electrical Circuits
- Mathematics Part I and Mathematics Part II
- Fluid Mechanics and Chemistry
- Mechanics of Materials
- Statics and Dynamics
- Thermodynamics
- Economics
- Materials Science
- Ethics
