1.00 - 4.00 Credits
This course involves independent work on a selected topic under the direction of members of the Department of Human Services. Limited to 2 courses per student Prerequisite: Approval of the Department Chair and Division Dean
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides students with an in-depth, supervised learning experience (of at least 135 hours per semester) in area social service agencies. Field Experience students also attend a weekly one-hour on-campus seminar in which they share knowledge concerning the practices, policies, procedures, and client populations of their field experience settings, consider key social service practice issues, and relate classroom learning to the field experience. Prerequisites: Grade of "C-" or better in Introduction to Social Welfare (HSRV101), Interviewing Techniques (HSRV102), and Introduction to Group Dynamics (HSRV103), or Departmental Approval

4.00 Credits
This course is the first in a series of electrical courses for the HVAC student. It provides students with a general knowledge of electricity and how it is applied to control circuits found in the HVAC industry. After an introduction to electron theory, students explore magnetism, electric meters, direct and alternating current power generation, distribution and utilization. Once they gain the knowledge of what electricity is, they then proceed to schematic symbols, wiring diagrams, electric code, and motor control fundamentals. In the laboratory, students explore these principles and components through test and analysis. Lecture: 3 hours Laboratory: 2 hours
-
4.00 Credits
This course is an in-depth study of heat principles, gaseous and liquid heating fuels, heating equipment, and distribution systems. Also discussed is the removal of combustion by-products through ventilation and venting requirements as prescribed in the state and national codes. High efficiency heating units and their special venting requirements are covered. In a laboratory setting, the student is exposed to instrumentation, methods of metering and proper fuel delivery, and adjusting heating equipment to achieve maximum performance. Lecture: 3 hours Laboratory: 2 hours
-
3.00 Credits
This course utilizes the most current theories and principles in thermodynamic heat transfer in buildings as required to calculate their heat loss and gain. This analysis and the calculations are the first vital steps to the design of all heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems. This course includes the selection of design conditions, heat transfer coefficients, and ventilation requirements used to calculate the design loads for residential, commercial, and industrial HVAC systems. Pre/Corequisite: Introductory Algebra (MATH101) or higher or waiver by placement testing results or Permission of Instructor
-
3.00 Credits
This course includes components by which the student will generate several types of drawings used in the HVAC industry by employing multiple drawing techniques. The types of drawings generated will include pipe and duct layouts, mechanical room plans, equipment layouts, schematics, flow diagrams, schedules and electrical diagrams. Drawing techniques used will include sketching, drafting and CAD components. Students taking this course should have basic knowledge in AutoCAD or possess adequate industry skills. Prerequisite: Computer Aided Drafting (ENGT107) or Permission of Instructor
-
4.00 Credits
This course is a concentrated study of the fundamentals of mechanical refrigeration systems, its components, and cycles used in cooling and heat pump applications. Utilizing thermodynamic principles, the students explore methods of heat transfer, nature and effect of heat energy in refrigeration, the physical characteristics of the common refrigerants, and refrigerant piping design. In the laboratory, through demonstration and experimentation, students validate these principles. Students are exposed to instrumentation and procedures utilized for testing and evaluating purposes. Lecture: 3 hours Laboratory: 2 hours Pre/Corequisite: Any Physics course (PHYSxxx) except Applied Science II (PHYS100) or Permission of Instructor
-
4.00 Credits
This course examines the properties of air and water as applied to heat transfer in HVAC Systems. The concepts of fluid flow as applied to water and air systems are covered. This includes the interpretation of air conditioning processes on the psychometric chart, pumps, blowers, piping, duct systems, volume control, and system performance. Laboratory experience includes piping and duct systems layout. Trainers are utilized by the student in measurements of system performance. Lecture: 3 hours Laboratory: 2 hours Pre/Corequisites: Introductory Algebra (MATH101) or higher or waiver by placement testing results, and any Physics course (PHYSxxx) except Applied Science II (PHYS100) or Permission of Instructor
-
4.00 Credits
This course is designed to advance a student's knowledge of HVAC principles into the area of system design. Topics covered include high and low velocity duct systems, variable air volume (VAV) systems, and hot water and steam systems. Students are exposed to equipment selection of items such as fans, pumps, coils, valves, air handlers, exhaust fans, and packaged heating and cooling units. To complete this course, students are required to submit a commercial project. This project includes design, calculation, and computer generated drawing components. Lecture: 3 hours Laboratory: 2 hours Prerequisites: Computer Aided Drafting (ENGT107) and Heating and Cooling Load Calculations (HVAC116) and HVAC Principles (HVAC204), or Permission of Instructor
