    This document provides a tentative course syllabus for MAE 162A Introduction to Mechanisms and Mechanical Systems taught in the fall of 2013 at UCLA. The course will cover kinematic analysis and force analysis of mechanisms and mechanical systems over 10 weeks. Topics will progress from basic definitions and classification of mechanisms to analysis of linkages, cams, gears, and other mechanical components. Evaluation will be based on homework assignments, a midterm exam, and a final exam. The instructor is Giacomo Po and the teaching assistant is Rashid Yasin, who will lead the weekly discussion sections.
