3.00 Credits
In this course, the student will learn the responsibilities of a hospital (or institutional) pharmacy technician. The student is provided information on hospital pharmacy standards and procedures, including certified physician order entry (CPOE) systems, medication formularies, automated dispensing systems and floor stock. Other topics will include controlled substance tracking, unit dose systems, beyond-use dating, non-sterile (extemporaneous) and sterile compounding, and the need for compounded medications.
-
3.00 Credits
Institutional (hospital) pharmacy practice procedures will be simulated, including medication reconciliation, crash cart charging and refilling, floor checks, unit dosing and filling automated drug storage systems, and preparing oral syringes. Both non-sterile (extemporaneous) and sterile compounding procedures will be completed.
-
2.00 Credits
This course will prepare the pharmacy technician student for the Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam. Additionally, the student will practice searching for job opportunities, as well as preparing a resume with appropriate references. Interview techniques will be learned and then practiced in a mock interview.

3.00 Credits
Meets MnTC Goal Area 3. This is a demonstration-based course that provides an introduction to selected topics in classical and modern physics. Topics will include measurement and significant digits, graphing, dimensional analysis, mechanics of motion, vibrations, waves, sound, electricity and magnetism, light and optics, atomic physics and atomic spectra, lasers and optical fibers, nuclear physics and radiation. The course uses active learning techniques with lab-like experiences. It uses many demonstrations and instructor-guided small group problem-solving activities. Simple algebra is used to ensure that students grasp the course concepts. This course is intended for all students but is especially designed for non-science majors who want an appreciation of and a limited working knowledge in some major areas of physics.

Meets MnTC Goal Area 3. This course is an introduction to selected topics in classical physics. The topics covered include measurement and significant digits, dimensional analysis, vectors, motion, force, work and energy, momentum and rotational dynamics. An introductory-level college algebra is used frequently to ensure that students grasp the principles and retain a working knowledge of them. This course may be taken separately from PHYS 1105 and is intended for all students but especially designed for non-science majors or those who need an introductory-level working knowledge of physics.

3.00 Credits
Meets MnTC Goal Areas 3 and 6. This course is an introduction to physics as it applies to the art and science of music. The course will be a mixture of lecture and lab-like experiences with both elements meeting concurrently. Experiments will be designed with musicians and non-scientists in mind and special care will be taken in the writing of lab reports. Topics include analysis of frequency, overtones, intensity, resonance and beats. Students will design and perform on musical instruments based on these principles.

3.00 Credits
Meets MnTC Goal Area 3. This course is an introduction to physics as it applies to various forms of flight. The course will be a mixture of lecture, discussion and hands-on experiences. Lab-like experiences will be designed for all students regardless of background. Topics will include a history of human flight, Newton's laws and kinematics, resistive forces, introductory fluid dynamics, electronic systems, basic flight systems, rocketry and projectile motion. Students will create and present a model aircraft based on these principles.

3.00 Credits
Meets MNTC Goal Area 3. This course includes a description of the universe covering our current understanding of the solar system, lunar and stellar study, interstellar gases, galaxies etc. It focuses on the development of modern astronomy and its techniques, astronomical coordinates, the use of astronomical instruments and recent discoveries in astronomy and cosmology. This non-lab course is designed for science and non-science majors.

4.00 Credits
Meets MnTC Goal Area 3. Prerequisite: MATH1115, MATH1116 or MATH1118This course gives a theoretical and practical introduction to physics, including kinetics in one and two dimensions, force and dynamics, bodies in equilibrium, work and energy, linear momentum, rotational motion, fluids, waves and sound. Lab equipment is used to illustrate these concepts. A mastery of college algebra and some trigonometry is essential for success in this course. The ability to use computers for creating reports and spreadsheets is needed for lab work. Physics 1401 is intended for all students but is especially designed for students majoring in forestry, biological sciences, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, physical therapy and other fields related to medicine. Lab is required.

Meets MNTC Goal Area 3. Prerequisite: MATH1115. This course is open to all students and gives a theoretical and practical introduction to physics. It is a continuation of Physics 1401, College Physics I. However, it may be taken without having taken Physics 1401. Topics include thermodynamics, selected topics in electricity and magnetism, DC and AC circuit theory, light and electromagnetic radiation, atomic physics, spectroscopy, lasers and photonics, and nuclear physics. Lab equipment is used to illustrate these concepts. A mastery of college algebra and some trigonometry is essential for success in this course. Lab is required. Physics 1402 is intended for all students but especially designed for students majoring in forestry, biological sciences, dentistry, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, physical therapy and other fields related to medicine.
