3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ENGL 111 - English I. This course explores literature that has questioned, resisted, and/or subverted traditional notions of masculinity. Assigned texts may include novels, memoirs, poetry, film, and studies of historical/ cultural contexts. The course will analyze themes such as identity, independence, competition, violence, and the intersections between gender, race, class, and sexual orientation.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ENGL 111 - English I. The course provides an opportunity for specialized literary study of different topics from semester to semester. Special Topics in Literature may be a certain literary theme, a time period, a genre, a single author or group of authors, specific regional or national literature, or other topics defined by the current instructor. The course is a literature elective. Students should refer to the English Department's Elective Course Description each semester to determine that semester's special topic.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is designed to help students to develop skills as: communication, time management, group work. Lectures are supported by films and guest speakers to expose students to different engineering disciplines and functions. Students will be introduced to all campus resources and services.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MATH 021 - Intermediate Algebra and High School Geometry. This course is a basic introduction to the techniques of engineering graphics designed to develop an ability to visualize, analyze, and understand engineering drawings and designs, and to develop skill and accuracy in producing drawings. The application of computer graphics using AutoCAD will be an integrated part of the course. (Fall and Spring semesters).
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MATH 112 - Precalculus I or equivalent. This is a one semester course intended to introduce engineering and science majors to the main features of MATLAB and its application to engineering and scientific problem-solving. Topics include an introduction to programming in MATLAB, including matrix operations, functions, arrays, loops and structures, working with data files and plotting. Students can apply this knowledge to learning other programming languages, such as C, C++, Fortran, BASIC and Pascal.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PHYS 151 - Engineering Physics II and MATH 152 - Calculus II. This is an introductory course in circuit theory for engineering majors. It includes introduction to DC and AC electrical principles with stress on different circuit analysis methods. Use of Ohm's law, Kirchoff's laws, network theorems for resistive, capacitive and inductive networks - Phasors and Phasor diagrams for AC circuits introduced with real and reactive power and maximum power transfer studies with application to Single and Three Phase circuits and Ideal transformers. Appropriate experiments are run concurrently with lectures. (Spring semester).
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PHYS 150 - Engineering Physics I and MATH 152 - Calculus II. This course covers the statics of particles and rigid bodies. Topics include vector description of forces and moments, two and three dimensional equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies, centroids and cneter of gravity, analysis of structures, friction, and moments of inertia.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ENGR 132 - Engineering Mechanics I - Statics. This course covers Kinematics and kinetics. Topics include rectilinear motion, curvilinear motion of particles and rigid bodies, Newton's Law for particles and rigid bodies; principle of impulse and momentum; plane motion of rigid bodies; mechanical vibrations. Free body diagrams and vector analysis methods are used.
-
3.00 Credits
Co/Prerequisite: CHEM 104 - General Chemistry II. This course introduces the student to theory and application of engineering materials. Topics explore the relations between the properties, microstructure, and behavior during use of metals, polymers, ceramics, and composite materials. Useful applications and limitations of those materials are presented, and means of modifying their properties are discussed.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MATH 030 - Intermediate Algebra or MATH 025 - Algebra Mod 4: Rational and Radical Behavior. Corequisite: CISY 102 - Computer Literacy. This course teaches the fundamentals of electricity, electric control, and introduces the student to robot operations and programming. Topics in electricity include AC and DC, basic circuit analysis, inductance and capacitance, Ohm's Law, Kirchoff's Laws, power, ideal transformers, basic control logic and ladder diagrams. A laboratory scale industrial robot is used to teach robot operations, robot programming and the design of robotic applications. Subject matter is presented in both a lecture and laboratory environment. 168 RVCC 2008-2009 Catalog ? For updated information, visit www.raritanval.edu
