    The document outlines the course objectives and units of the MEC107: Basic Engineering Mechanics course. The course aims to provide an understanding of forces, moments, and their applications. It also aims to apply engineering mechanics concepts to solve problems. The six units cover topics like coplanar forces, friction, centroids, moment of inertia, trusses, kinematics, and kinetics of rigid bodies. The course references four textbooks on vector mechanics, engineering mechanics, and statics and dynamics.
