Prerequisite: Completion of IST 1712 and HVAC 1640.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Building Automation Systems (BAS) Design and Installation provides students a hands-on introduction to the fasteners, equipment, tools and methods for installing building automation system components. The concepts and principles of previous BAS courses are applied to the design of and commissioning of automation systems. Prerequisite: Completion of HVAC 1710
  • 4.00 Credits

    Students develop skills needed to inspect, measure, and test the energy efficiency of residential buildings for various factors, including the tightness of the structure, the insulation levels, and the energy consumption of the appliances. They also inspect and test for safety concerns such as carbon monoxide, asbestos, mold, and lead base paint, along with general hazards, including electrical, plumbing, and structural concerns. Students also develop skills to effectively communicate with owners to find critical information about a facility's history. They analyze the information for the most cost effective solutions and provide a report to the customer. Prerequisites: Completion of HVAC 1630 and HVAC 1650 or instructor approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students will explore human anatomy as seen in various anatomical and regional areas in the body, to include transverse, sagittal, and coronal planes. Students will identify the anatomy of the human head, thorax, spine, abdomen, pelvis and extremities. Students correlate cross-sectional images from various modalities and recognize normal anatomy, anatomic variants, and selected pathology. Prerequisites: Acceptance into the Diagnostic Medical Sonography Program.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students explore the field of Diagnostic Medical Sonography by examining the history of sonography and correlation of other imaging modalities. Students develop an understanding of the Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography Code of Ethics pertaining to patient care and daily involvement with physicians, nurses, and other sonographers. Students learn to identify different behaviors and mental processes as it relates to the healthcare field. Prerequisite: Admission to the Diagnostic Medical Sonography program.
  • 2.00 Credits

    Students are introduced to physics and instrumentation relevant to diagnostic medical sonography. Students explore the components of the ultrasound machine system, sound beam properties, sound propagation in tissue and ultrasound transducers. While applying key concepts, students will develop a framework which will be built upon in IMAG 1515 Ultrasound Physics II. Prerequisites: Completion of IMAG 1500 and IMAG 1505.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students build on skills learned in IMAG 1510. Students demonstrate competency in general Doppler, color Doppler, and spectral Doppler principles, quality assurance and quality control principles, and sonographic safety as they relate to bioeffects. Students explore image production and display, storage of the ultrasound image, and sonographic artifacts. Students investigate new frontiers in ultrasound principles, and demonstrate competency in transducer selection, usage, setting scanning parameters, and interactive properties of ultrasound. Prerequisite: Completion of IMAG 1510.
  • 2.00 Credits

    Students are introduced to the anatomy, pathology, and physiology of the non-gravid female pelvic organs and first-trimester pregnancy along with the proper scanning protocols of each pelvic organ and a first-trimester pregnancy. Specifically, the student learns and recognize normal echo-texture of anatomy and pathology as it relates to the following organs: uterus, ovaries, pelvic muscles, bladder, and development of a first-trimester pregnancy. The students explore the importance of sonographic image quality as it relates to the anatomy, pathology, and the development of the first-trimester fetus. This course is offered in the fall semester. Prerequisite: Completion of IMAG 1500 and IMAG 1505. Corequisite: Concurrent enrollment in IMAG*1505.
  • 1.00 Credits

    This course to be taken concurrently with IMAG 1520. Students experience hands-on laboratory training with grayscale, color, and spectral Doppler imaging and continue to build their knowledge base for knobology. Students will demonstrate proper patient positioning, scanning techniques, and recognition of the normal and pathological findings of the female pelvis and first-trimester pregnancy. Students will receive instruction and supervision from a registered ob/gyn sonographer.
  • 2.00 Credits

    Students will be introduced to the anatomy, pathology, physiology and pathophysiology of the abdominal organs along with the proper scanning protocols of each organ. Students will identify and recognize normal echo-texture of anatomy and pathology as it relates to the following organs: pancreas, liver, biliary system, gallbladder, kidneys, and abdominal vasculature. Students will explore the importance of sonographic image quality as it relates to the anatomy and pathology. This course is offered in the fall semester. Prerequisite: Completion of IMAG 1500 and IMAG 1505. Corequisite: Concurrent enrollment in IMAG 1526.
