A study of the major psychological theories, models, research and principles that apply to the teaching and learning process. Special attention will be given to cognitivistic approaches.

The origins, current status, and emerging applications of psychodynamic approaches to counseling.

Advanced Theory and Analysis is a continuation of Music Theory III, including harmonic and structural analysis of compositions in the smaller and larger forms and a survey of contemporary music theory systems.

Existence and continuation theorems for ordinary differential equations, continuity and differentiability with respect to initial conditions, linear systems, differential inequalities, Sturm theory.

Stability theory, periodic solutions, boundary value problems, disconjugacy of linear equations, Green's functions, upper and lower solutions, a priori bounds methods, current research.

This course is a study of DSM-5-TR diagnosis in a biopsychosocial context and of treatment modalities and techniques with a relational emphasis. Students will learn how to use the DSM-5- TR to make a diagnosis and assessment and how to apply various theories of therapy and counseling to the diagnosed disorder.

Engineering principles of polymers and their role in manufacturing processes. Aspects of polymer phenomena and their relationship to processing of structural and functional components.

Application of classical thermodynamics. Treatment of problems involving nonideal gases and liquids, phase equilibrium, and chemical equilibrium.

Application of classical thermodynamics. Treatment of problems involving non-ideal gases and liquids, phase equilibrium, and chemical equilibrium.

Physics and performance of electrically-driven in-space propulsion for Earth satellites and deep space missions. The physics of electromagnetics, plasmas, gas kinetics as applied to electrothermal, electrostatic, electromagnetic, and other electric propulsion systems. Characteristics and performance metrics of resistojets, arcjets, ion engines, Hall effect thruster, pulsed plasma thruster, and magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters. Review of orbital mechanics including low-thrust transfers.
