This document outlines the objectives, outcomes, frequently asked questions, and first assignment for a thermodynamics course. The objectives are to familiarize students with basic thermodynamics concepts, devices, properties, and how to evaluate energy, work, and heat transfer processes. The outcomes are for students to be able to identify subsystems, properties, work and heat transfers, and analyze devices and processes. Common questions ask about prerequisites, how the class prepares students academically, and professionally. The first assignment asks students to identify 5 systems where energy transfer is important.
