INTRODUCTORY PHYSICS I

The concepts and relations (force, energy, and momentum) describing physical interactions and the changes in motion they produce, along with applications to the physical and life sciences. Lab experiments, lectures, and problem solving activities are interwoven into each class. Discussion sections offer additional help with mathematics, data analysis, and problem solving. This course satisfies medical school and engineering requirements for an introductory physics I course with labs.

CultralLandscpes:DocValuesPolc

An important course for landscape architects, planners, and other professionals interested in the cultural landscape, this course will introduce students to the identification, understanding, documentation and policy implications of cultural landscapes. While it will touch on the issues of both designed and vernacular landscapes, the focus of the course will be vernacular landscape.

Intro Electrical & Comp Engin

Students select one of the four introductory engineering courses (ENGIN 110, 111, 112, or 113). Within a small class, student teams explore real engineering designs. This introduction to engineering design and/or manufacturing emphasizes development of communication skills (written, oral, and graphical). Project required.

Corequisites: Simultaneous enrollment in MATH 131, or higher; enrollment in, or eligibility to enroll in ENGLWRIT 112.

Intro to Hlth Srvcs Mgmt

This course presents an undergraduate-level introduction to the principles and practice of management in health service organizations. Specific topics include leadership, organizational behavior and theory, strategic planning, marketing, quality and process improvement, finance and insurance, and human resource management. This course is designed to inform and prepare future managers with the necessary competencies to positively affect the long-term success of health organizations.

ST-Malaria,Cancer,ClimateChng

This course (Malaria, Cancer, Climate Change, Congestion and Social Trends: Simulation Modeling for Addressing World Problems) introduces students to the concept and types of simulation modeling needed for understanding complex systems and addressing global problems in healthcare, energy, transportation, among others. We will start with simple experiments that can be calculated by hand or in Excel to introduce the concept of simulation; then extend into systems modeling using compartmental and agent-based techniques.

ST-SolarEnergySys&BldgDesign

Introduces the fundamental concepts of solar building design and energy systems. Through project-based study and occasional field visits, students will explore the theory, technologies, applications, and benefits of solar design of buildings and discover how to utilize solar energy systems for residential and commercial buildings.
Students will be required to research and document technology and complete a semester case study project in which they will examine various energy conservation aspects and economics underlying solar energy systems.
