This class explores animal physiology, aiming to understand how animals work, from individual cells to whole organisms. We will take a comparative approach to understand the fundamental ways in which animals deal with the common challenges. A basic foundation in chemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and evolutionary biology is required for this course. Students will complete a capstone independent literature review on a topic of their choice in the field of animal physiology.

Nutrition. This course is an advanced study of the utilization and requirements of minerals and vitamins in farm and ranch animals. It emphasizes ruminant and non-ruminant mineral and vitamin metabolism and utilization. The utilization of specific minerals and vitamins by different species will be used to explain and predict subsequent performance.

This course applies the scientific and technological advances to non- ruminant production and management. It includes the study of scientific and technological advances with an emphasis on overall management, health care, nutrition, genetics, physiology, and marketing of non- ruminant animals.

Further study of movement in character with emphasis on specific scenes and actions. Course is project based to give students the experience of creating their own characters and stories.

An advanced investigation of theory, history, contemporary practice, and techniques through research and studio practice. Emphasis on mature creative expression and production as an animator. Course may be repeated for a maximum of 6 credit hours.

Advanced study of complex character animation techniques including the creation of exposure sheets, animation charts, audio production and the digital clean-up process.

Contingent on the approval of the instructor, the student will define a project delving into specific subject matter as it relates to Animation, Illustration, Digital Art, or other Sequential Arts. This course is meant to further the direction of the individual and the development of an advanced portfolio or works. May be repeated up to 15 credit hours.

This course emphasizes synthesis and application of design theories and the procedures and processes used in the apparel industry. Development of a portfolio of original design work is required. Two laboratories. Experiential Learning, PW: Innovation and Creativity
