Courses

Physical education activity course.

Course designed to improve personal competence in basic and advanced swimming rescue, first aid, and artificial resuscitation, as well as advanced techniques in small-craft safety and aquatics leadership. Students may qualify for the American Red Cross Lifeguard Training Certificate.

Analysis, interpretation, and forecasting synoptic-scale, and mesoscale phenomena, including air masses, frontal systems, cyclones, anticyclones, and waves toward understanding process dynamics. Emphasize the use of observational, satellite and numerical model data, including radars and profilers.

Points of view toward language study; traditional syntax; points of view toward rhetoric; Christensen's rhetoric of the paragraph; analysis of written discourse.

Laboratory emphasizing modern methods of synthesis and characterization of organic inorganic and organometallic compounds. Laboratory introduces students to multi-step synthesis and handling of air-sensitive compounds. Characterization of compounds includes the use of physical separation and spectroscopic techniques.

This course will serve as a co-listed course with CH 532. The main goal of this course is to instruct advanced organic chemistry to undergraduates.

Unified framework for modeling, analysis, synthesis, design and simulation of mechanical systems with energy exchange across multiple domains; study of mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and thermal subsystems; Newtonian mechanics, rigid body dynamics, multiple degrees of freedom vibrations and control system design.

Advanced topics in business systems analysis and design; alternative methodologies such as agile development, extreme programming, Rational Unified Process; Unified Modeling Language; bench marking and best practices for systems development; cost/benefit analysis, estimation and budgeting for business information systems; testing; patterns, domain-driven design; process modeling; service-oriented architecture and cloud computing.

Review of linear spaces and operators; state variable description of time varying and time invariant linear systems. Controllability and observability of linear dynamical systems; state feedback and state estimators; stability of linear systems; arbitrary pole assignment for multivariable case.

An advanced course focusing on tap dance language and the execution of advanced tap technique.
