Welcome to the ET 350 Guide
This guide provides convenient links to databases useful for research on engineering machinery, and information on how to effectively use them. The navigation is on the left.
Top Database: IEEE Xplore
IEEE Xplore provides access to scientific and technical content published by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) and its publishing partners. It is aimed at working engineers; most of Cal Maritime's databases are aimed at students and faculty in a university setting. IEEE Xplore offers many features useful specifically for engineering topics, so take your time, look around, and see what's available.
