  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is a survey of African American literature. Students will read and respond to stories, poems, novels, and other narratives in the rich tradition of African American literature. Emphasis is placed on understanding the cultural, political, and social contexts surrounding the texts. Major writers like Ellison, Hughes, and Morrison may be covered in this course. (Prerequisites: None).
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students will read and examine a number of primary texts in order to explore answers to a key question - How shall we live? In order to develop an appreciation of environmental literacy, students will be introduced to a wide variety of texts that have influenced our understanding of the natural world. Field trips and/or service-learning projects may be part of the course. College-level reading and writing recommended. (Prerequisites: None).
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course emphasizes improving students' ability to write, read, and critique fiction. Students will study and apply elements of fiction, such as characterization, plot development, incorporating dialogue, and other concepts. In this process, students will generate ideas, write, and revise. (Prerequisites: None) (Other requirements: RECOMMENDED ENTRY SKILLS/KNOWLEDGE: College level reading and writing skills.)
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course serves as an introduction to the traditions of and issues within children's literature, as well as to the literature itself. Books for children approximately ages 0-12 will be surveyed in terms of text, illustrations, and multi-media interpretations; standards and criteria for evaluating good literature will evolve through reading, discussion, research, and writing. A variety of literature will be explored in the areas of fantasy, realistic fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. A common thread will be equity and inclusion, with a focus on representation: who tells the stories for children, about whom, and how. (Prerequisites: None. Other Requirements: None.)
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is a study of literature written for and read by young adults, approximately between the ages of 12-18. In addition to examining characteristics of literary genres within young adult literature, students will consider current market trends and how literature for young adults is used as a basis for other artistic forms, such as film and other media. Students will study specific works of literature, both classic and contemporary and become familiar with the application of young adult literature in middle and secondary school curricula by activities such as preparing lesson plans, study guides, discussion questions, and writing assignments. Students will consider the developmental stage we call adolescence, whether this stage has changed significantly with recent societal changes, and how literature may reflect and/or support those changes. College level reading and writing is recommended. (Prerequisites: None).
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course helps students gain an understanding of the profession of engineering, the pathway to an engineering career, and knowledge of the different fields of engineering. Hands-on projects and invited speakers will be included. Knowledge gained will be applied by students to guide their engineering education and to help in determining their career choice. (Prerequisites: None).
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course covers fundamental digital circuit design. Topics include truth tables, Boolean algebra, Karnaugh maps, logic gates, digital devices, sequential systems, flip-flops, counters, and design involving these elements. The accompanying laboratory provides hands-on experience designing, building, and testing digital circuits. (Prerequisites: MATH 1115 or higher (may be taken concurrently).
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is the study of rigid body dynamics in equilibrium. Topics include forces and moments in three dimensions, the equations needed to solve these systems, and the analysis of structures, trusses, frames, mechanisms, and statically determinate beams and cables. The nature and influence of friction on a static system is studied. Three dimensional vector analysis and integral calculus are used. (Prerequisites: PHYS 1127, MATH 1127).
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is the study of rigid body dynamics in fixed and rotating systems, including the analysis of systems moving with linear accelerations and/or angular accelerations to determine the reaction forces and moments of force acting on the various components of the system. The time dependent analysis of vibrating/rotating systems is studied. Extensive use is made of vector analysis and calculus. (Prerequisites: ENGR 2211, MATH 1128).
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is a study of linear circuits, wherein techniques for the solution and ultimate understanding of electric circuits are studied. Topics include mesh analysis, nodal analysis, Thevenin's and Norton's methods for source transformations, equivalent circuits, natural and step response to RLC circuits, and sinusoidal steady state analysis with phasors. The accompanying integrated laboratory allows students to study, measure, and troubleshoot these circuits. (Prerequisites: MATH 1128, PHYS 1128).
