Course Overview
The Engineering Mechanics Training is a 9-week long specialized math course that educates learners on mathematical analysis of the concepts of engineering mechanics. The course offered on the online learning platform of edX aims at introducing learners to the process of mathematical modelling of engineering designs and their core mechanisms. The course will be taught in a self-paced manner.
The Engineering Mechanics Certification Course is administered by the expert tutors of the Department of Theoretical Mechanics at the Ural Federal University. The course will be delivered via video lectures, video demonstrations, problem sets, tasks, and tests. Once all evaluation steps are completed, learners will be awarded the Engineering Mechanics Certification by edX and the University of Tokyo upon successful completion.
