Course Outline
With the advent of the smartphone, mobile devices have become the favored mode of communication. As a result, many mobile applications have been developed in the fields of engineering, from simple ones that can convert units or scan a sketch to advanced ones that can perform symbolic calculations or create a flowchart. This course is designed for engineers or anyone else who wishes to be up-to-date on all the latest gadgets to improve their productivity, expand their business, and seek inspiration for new designs and products.
At the end of this course, there will be a multiple-choice, open-book quiz designed to enhance your understanding of the course material.
