Assignments

This section contains documents created from scanned original files and other documents that could not be made accessible to screen reader software. A "#" symbol is used to denote such documents.



Assignment Schedule


Students are assigned one problem set per week. Each week's assignment is made available on Monday, and is due on Tuesday of the following week (8 days later). One problem is assigned for each lecture. Problems included in Monday's assignment cover lectures from the previous Friday through the following Thursday. For example, Problem Set 2 is available on Monday of Week 2, due on Tuesday of Week 3, and includes one problem for each lecture between Friday of Week 1 and Thursday of Week 2. Assignment key dates are listed in the calendar.

Problem set solutions are posted promptly after the due date, and graded problems are typically returned to students within 2-3 days. This schedule allows students to study for exams using both school solutions and their own graded papers.



Solutions and Evaluation


Students in Unified Engineering are expected to present thorough solutions to these problems. While a numerical answer is often required, a satisfactory solution must also describe the intermediate steps taken to reach it. Grading information and a sample solution are linked below.

Time Spent on Assignments


The cover sheet for each assignment, or "Time Spent Sheet" is due along with the problem set solutions. The course staff monitor the time students spend completing their assignments and preparing for quizzes. When the student average diverges significantly from the instructors' expectations, the faculty are able to make mid-term corrections to rebalance the students' workload.



Assignments


The table below contains the weekly assignments for both the Fall 2005 and Spring 2006 semesters. They are provided below in two formats:

  1. Original format (all discipline problems covered in a single problem set)
  2. Discipline-specific format (each problem is broken out into a separate file based on its discipline).

The abbreviations used in problem numbering correspond to the discipline abbreviations found in the syllabus.
