Whom should I contact if I have questions about teaching in EDC?
Engineering faculty should contact Bruce Ankenman, while writing faculty should contact Penny Hirsch.
When and where does my section meet?
Course information is posted on CAESAR. Classrooms G.201, G.205, and G.211 are located on the ground floor of the Ford Motor Company Engineering Design Center.
Where is the course information for students posted?
We are using NU's Course Management System (CMS) to publish course related information to students. However, some information will be linked from this website during the opening week of the course to insure that students who are adding the course late can get the materials.

The faculty-written EDC textbook is available at Quartet Copies in Evanston. The graphics text (Lueptow, Graphics Concepts) is available at the Norris Center bookstore. Desk copies of both texts are available for faculty.
