-
3.00 Credits
Students complete a research project in the field of major concentration. The research is supervised by a faculty member and must be defended by the student in an oral examination. Internships under the supervision of an academic advisor are an option. This course is to be taken last or next to last as the student applies accumulated knowledge of both core and concentration classes to this effort.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic introduction to the design and construction of a current model PC including operating systems and some diagnostic software. Students build, configure, test and troubleshoot PCs in the laboratory. This material can be used as a basis for studying for both the CompTIA A+ exam.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of IT-110 into the networking with major emphasis on local network equipment, network software and addressing schemes. Students build, configure, test and troubleshoot a network in the laboratory. Routers and switches are included. This material can be used as a basis for studying for both the CompTIA Network + exam.
-
3.00 Credits
Lightwave propagation in fiber optics, including modal conditions, numerical aperture, attenuation and signal distortion in step-index and graded-index fibers. Connectors, splices and analysis of coupling losses. Operating principles and characteristics of optical sources and detectors. Transmitter and receiver circuits for analog and digital communication. Design consideration for practical optical communication links using power budget and rise-time analysis. Discussion and comparison of latest multiplexing and coupling techniques used in optical networks. Contains labs. Prerequisites: EL-261 and MA-261.

3.00 Credits
This course covers fundamentals of energy generation (conversion), current diversity of energy resources from fossil fuels to renewable and alternative sources, and environmental impact of the generation and use of energy. Topics include the availability, economics and environmental consequences of energy generation, distribution and consumption from oil, coal, gas, hydrogen, nuclear, wind, solar, geothermal, hydro, biomass and other alternative sources currently under development and study by the scientific and engineering communities. Efficient use of energy in the domestic, transportation and industrial sectors will be discussed. In addition to exams and quizzes, students will be required to research selected topics of interest in order to enhance their understanding of the most recent advances in the fields of energy and the environment. This course may be used as a general, technical, science or engineering elective. Prerequisite: PH-201.
