3.00 Credits
A study of principles and hardware for control and automation systems as applied to processes in marine and shoreside power plants. Media studied include pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical/electronic. Prerequisites: Eg-372, Ce-203 or Co-200 or Co-201 or Co-203. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
Operational theory, applications and troubleshooting of basic electronic components used to control electrical power, including thermionic tubes, CRTs, diodes, transistors, SCRs and related components. Circuits studied include rectifiers, oscillators, amplifiers, inverters, stabilized power supplies, counters, sensors for speed, motion and position, logic circuits, memories and Bistable devices. Applications are taken from automation, AC and DC control circuits, battery charging systems and power supplies, microwave ovens, communications and digital logic and memory systems. Prerequisite: Eg-372. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
Extension of the theory and practice of communications tasks of a working engineer or technologist, including engineering proposals and reports; mechanism and process description; instructions, accident or casualty reports; technical specifications; and progress reports. Application of effective visual aids to both oral and written communications will be emphasized. This course supports the marine license program requirements to meet the Standards for Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW). The course may have embedded assessment requirements that must be completed in addition to the class requirements. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
A preparatory course for engineers in formulating decision-making guidelines and solving technical problems while considering ethical ramifications. Includes professionalism and codes of ethics as related to moral and virtue issues. Responsibility of engineers as well as risk safety and liability associated with decision-making processes as they affect the environment and societal norms are also included. Prerequisite: senior standing or permission of the instructor. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
2.00 Credits
A study of the components, functions, and operating principles of an air conditioning system with particular attention focused on the influence of temperature, humidity, and air motion as related to human comfort. Topics include psychometrics, air quality, capacity calculations for heat gain and loss, air distribution, and elementary refrigeration systems. Rec. 2, Cr. 2.
-
3.00 Credits
A course in which the student, individually, applies his/her knowledge of computer methods, engineering operations, engineering science and technical communications to analyze, create, communicate and defend a written technical project. Additionally, the course will introduce concepts of power plant operations, which build on previous PET curriculum material. This will include fossil power plant operations and technologies, using a power plant simulator, electrical grid operation and current topics of interest in the power generation industry. This course is a communications intensive and computer intensive course. Prerequisites: Et-378, Eg-382 and Eg-431. Rec. 3, Lab. 2, Cr. 4.
-
3.00 Credits
A course in which the student, individually, and as part of a team, applies his/her knowledge of computer methods, engineering operations, engineering science and technical communications to analyze, create, communicate and defend a written project. At least one formal presentation will be included in this project. Additionally, the course will develop concepts of power plant operations, which build on previous PET curriculum material. This will include combined cycle power plant operations and technologies, using a power plant simulator, environmental considerations, professional ethics and current topics of interest in the power generation industry. This course is a communications intensive and computer intensive course. Prerequisite: Et-498. Rec. 4, Lab. 2, Cr. 5.
-
3.00 Credits
This course surveys the physical, economic, and historical patterns of the U.S., Canada, Latin America, Europe, Russia, and states of the former Soviet Union. Each of these regions will be explored with respect to landforms, resources, and cultures, as well as evolving economic and political systems. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
This course surveys the physical, economic, and historical patterns of the Middle East, North Africa, Asia, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands. Each of these regions will be explored with respect to landforms, resources, and cultures, as well as evolving economic and political systems. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
Students apply basic writing skills to produce various types of business communications, including formal and informal reports, proposals, procedures, memos and letters. Students will also produce resumes and letters of application. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
