Topics in Continuum Physics

The course will address elementary concepts in continuum mechanics: conserved scalar and vector fields, and the stress tensor, and Lagrangian and Eulerian descriptions of the balance laws. Examples of motion - extensional, shear, and rigid body motion will be discussed, along with the basic equations of elasticity. We will study the basic equations of fluid mechanics, the Navier-Stokes equations, and its solutions in special cases, for viscous flows and low Reynolds number hydrodynamics.

Classical Mechanics

Advanced course in undergraduate classical mechanics covering Newtonian dynamics and analytic methods. Topics include: conservation laws, oscillatory phenomena including damping and resonance, central force problems and planetary orbits, rigid body mechanics, an introduction to the calculus of variation and the principle of least action, generalized coordinates, with Lagrangian and Hamiltonian dynamics.

DEI&Mrktg/MulticultralMarketpl

This undergraduate course will provide an overview of multicultural marketing in the United States. In today?s economy, it is widely recognized that the size and growth of multicultural populations is closely linked to successful marketplace performance of businesses. The class will provide an in-depth discussion and perspective on African American, Hispanic/Latino/Latinx, Asian American, Women, GLBTQA+, people with different abilities and the youth market sectors. The class is structured as a seminar where mini-case studies, book and article readings will be discussed.

Consumer Behavior

Application of behavioral science theories and marketing theories to an understanding of the behavior of consumers. Exploration of consumer decision making and involvement as well as psychological and social factors that influence the consumer. Prerequisites: MARKETNG 301

Digital Culture

This course explores the history and social implications of our digitized culture(s). Considering information technology in terms of its relationship to the self and society, we will discuss a wide-ranging set of issues related to digital cultures, such as online communities and social networking, internet addiction, and machine learning. We will also investigate the implications of digital cultures in terms of social categories including class, race, and gender.
