3.00 Credits
The course will introduce students to the photovoltaic system design. It will begin by providing a basic understanding of the properties of sunlight, review the relevant semiconductor concepts and provide an in-depth understanding of the principles governing conventional solar cell operation. Focus will then be placed on the intricacies of solar cell design exploring such aspects as module fabrication, standalone and grid-connected system requirements, and photovoltaic material specific issues. The remainder of the course will be devoted to requirements, design and economics of specific purpose photovoltaic applications.
Prerequisite:
ENGRG 3571 (0271); special authorization required for non-majors
-
3.00 Credits
Mechanics of blood circulation, fluid mechanics of the heart, blood flow in arteries, unsteady flow in veins, current concepts in circulatory assist devices, biofluidics, and other selected topics.
Prerequisite:
MATH 3041 (0251), ENGRG 3553 (0253)
-
3.00 Credits
The purpose of this course is to expose students to rigorous engineering techniques and methodologies utilized in forensic engineering, accident reconstruction, failure analysis and the analysis of injury biomechanics. Additionally, the role of engineering accident reconstruction and biomechanical injury analysis in the engineering design process to ensure product safety will also be discussed, as will the role of standards in engineering design.
Prerequisite:
ENGRG 2333 and 3553
-
3.00 Credits
CAD/CAM in practice: flexible systems, operations, and performance. The course also considers communication and the integration of robots and computerized machines. Laboratory and demonstrations.
Prerequisite:
ET 3651 (0252), ET 3652 (0255)
-
3.00 Credits
The purpose of this course is to prepare pre-service teachers to teach science in the upper elementary and middle level settings. The course will be based on the “Big Ideas” in the field of science and science education and will focus heavily on scientific inquiry as a pedagogical approach and a learning goal. The Big Ideas in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Earth/Space Sciences will be integrated into the various classes along with themes, such as motivating students, assessing & moving student’s ideas toward science conceptions through inquiry, using questioning and flexible teaching methods (based on how children learn), and integrating science with other disciplines. Students will apply, evaluate, and reflect upon science teaching methods through class and lab activities, case studies, field experience assignments, and instructional technology (e.g., science web sites and videos). Assignments for the course will use the foundation fostered in the course to examine (a) science content, (b) student conceptions, (c) the meeting of theory and practice, (d) instructional resources (e.g., websites), and (e) lesson planning. NOTE: Background clearances required.
