3.00 Credits
Symbiosis is the interaction between two or more different types of organisms in an ecological setting. Interactions such as mutualism, commensalism, parasitism, and predation occur at the cellular, organismal, and community levels. Relevant marine, aquatic, and terrestrial examples of symbiotic relationships will be investigated and discussed in order to appreciate the biological and evolutionary significance of these remarkable associations. Prerequisites: Bi-201 and Bi-301. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
An examination of the principles of ecology as applied in the marine environment. This course will explore our present understanding of the dynamics of marine populations and communities as well as the role that marine ecology has played in forming our views of how all ecological systems function. Prerequisites: Bi-201, Bi-210 or Bi-220, and Os-203. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
A course examining the distribution of organisms on Earth. Topics covered will include global and regional biogeographic patterns, early Earth and fundamental biogeographic processes, phylogeography, ecological biogeography, and conservation biogeography. This course will also explore current biogeography topics by discussing papers from primary literature. Prerequisites: Bi-201. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
-
3.00 Credits
A course allowing students to pursue instruction not normally offered in the curriculum, through any combination of lecture and laboratory. Departmental approval required. Prerequisite: Ms-101. Cr. 1-3 as appropriate.
-
1.00 Credits
- Students are introduced to two CAD programs: AutoCAD for basic 2-D drawing and Fast Ship for basic 3-D hull surface definition. The basic functionality of the programs is demonstrated. Emphasis is on those features that demonstrate the relationship between computer-aided-design and the sketching and manual drafting skills from the Construction 1 class. Prerequisites: Et-101, Ct-101, De-101. Rec. 4, Lab 2, Cr. 2.
-
2.00 Credits
- Advanced features of AutoCAD and Fast Ship are explored. Emphasis in AutoCAD is on those features that add character to the drawing; and in Fast Ship on those features needed to extract data from the model to assess static and dynamic stability. Prerequisite: Cd-101. Rec. 1, Lab 1, Cr. 1.
-
3.00 Credits
- Students are introduced to the 3-D modeling program RHINO. Basic functionality of the program is demonstrated with emphasis of features of the program such as screen and tool layout, drawing tools and manipulation tools. Prerequisite: Cd-201. Rec. 1.5, Lab 1, Cr. 1.
-
3.00 Credits
A cooperative experience in the Merchant Marine in which the student is normally assigned a billet aboard a commercial merchant ship by the director of cadet shipping. (In some cases this cruise may be accomplished aboard the T.S. State of Maine.) The student participates in the operation of the ship as a cadet engineer or mate by applying classroom lessons of the first two years. An extensive written sea project detailing all aspects of the experience is required. Prerequisites for engineers: students must not be on academic probation and must have passed Cr-103, Et-201, Eg-234, Eg-252, Eg-261 or Eg-265, Et-371 or Es-371, and Eg-292 or have a minimum of C- grade in each at the end of the 10th week of the current semester, or obtain permission of the Engineering Cadet Shipping Coordinator. Basic Safety Training and drug-free certification are also required. Prerequisite for mates: Cr-103, Ns-122, Ns-241, Ns-262, Ns-282, Ns-292, Mt-21D or Department Chair approval. Basic Safety Training and drug-free certification are also required. Cr. 4.
-
3.00 Credits
The final cruise in a series of three. A thorough shipboard experience designed to prepare the student to understand fully the systems and operating procedures necessary for the execution of the responsibilities of a third engineer or third mate. 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. Prerequisites for mates: Cd-203, Ns-221, Ns 301, Ns-332, Ns-345, Ns-381, Mt-32D or Department Chair approval. Prerequisites for engineers: Ce-203, Eg-372, Et-211 or Es-251; Maintenance Second Class. Cr. 4.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will emphasize the basic laws and theories of chemistry and their derivation from experimental evidence. It presents the qualitative and quantitative aspects of matter's composition and changes and their unifying principles. It includes physical and chemical properties, periodicity of elements, stoichiometry, current atomic and bonding theories, laws and theories of physical states and changes of state, solution chemistry, and thermochemistry. Rec. 3, Cr. 3.
