3.00 Credits
This course provides students with an understanding of the unique qualities, philosophies, and practices of the U.S. nonprofit mission-driven sector. The course examines the sources and management of resources as well as strategies for their effective use. Nonprofit Management begins with a historical overview of the nonprofit sector and demonstrates its complex structure. The primary goal of this course is to provide a thorough knowledge base, both theoretical and practical, for effective nonprofit management.
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores governance within contemporary nonprofit organizations. The course focuses on leadership dynamics from theoretical and practical perspectives. Students will explore salient internal and external environmental factors that influence behavior through the examination and analysis of best practices. The primary goal of this course is to provide a realistic understanding of the elements that both support and impede effective governance for nonprofits. The significance of strong leadership and governance practices is reinforced in the course's discussion of emerging trends within nonprofit entities.
-
3.00 Credits
This course addresses current nonprofit management issues and trends that have both immediate and emerging impact on the U.S. civil sector. The course will cover issues of governance (accountability, transparency, and responsibility), performance management, and infrastructure development. It will also address new approaches to marketing, public relations, and development activities. Keeping in mind the contemporary economic environment, the course will examine new revenue streams for nonprofits in terms of their utility and long-term effects. The major goal of this course is to provide students with benchmarking theories and practical tools that will allow them to analyze contemporary management challenges and construct innovative solutions.
-
1.00 Credits
This course provides general information that a student will need to prepare for work in a radiologically controlled area. It describes radiation and contamination; their health effects; their sources; how they are monitored, controlled, and measured; personal responsibilities; and how to work safely in areas where they are found.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides students with fundamental concepts of atomic and nuclear physics, nuclear reactor physics, and nuclear reactor operations. It includes a background in atomic and nuclear physics, nuclear reactions and elementary particle interactions as well as considerations for nuclear reactor design, reactor control, and reactor operations.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines the design, components, and operations of the nuclear reactor systems with focus on pressurized water reactor (PWR) and boiling water reactor (BWR). Topics covered include reactor coolant system; core design and control; reactor vessel and internals; reactor coolant pumps; pressurizer and relief systems; and steam generators. The course also covers chemical column control system, boron recycle system, spent fuel and cooling system, fuel handling, reactor servicing, component cooling water, liquid radwaste, and gaseous radwaste. In addition, it provides students with opportunities to use nuclear reactor plant simulator software for hands-on learning experience of nuclear power reactor operations.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides basic concepts and applications in health physics and environmental aspects of nuclear power generation. The topics covered include the biological effects of radiation; dose-rate evaluation; radiation monitoring; radiological safety, reactor effluents, and radioactive waste disposal; regulations governing radiation exposure and the release of radioactivity into the environment; and the environmental impact of nuclear power plants.
-
3.00 Credits
This course encompasses the principles of operation of various types of instruments in the nuclear industry to measure temperature, pressure, level, flow, position, and radiation. The student will gain a broad range of working knowledge of temperature, pressure, level and flow sensors, position indicators, radiation detectors, and control systems. Component theory and design, system hardware, and integrated operation as applied to commercial nuclear systems will be explored.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a study of fundamentals associated with neutron properties and behavior in light water reactors. Course content includes mass-energy relationships, binding energy, radioactivity, neutron reactions with matter, neutron cross sections, flux, neutron reaction rates, fissionable and fissile fuels, fission reaction, neutron production, neutron life cycle, four-factor and six-factor formula, the effect of reactivity on neutron multiplication, neutron flux and reactor power, reactivity, subcritical multiplication, prompt and delay neutron factors, and neutron sources. The course topics also include reactor period, reactivity coefficients, control rod worth, fission product poisons, and fuel burn up and decay heat removal when the reactor is shut down.
