H - This course helps students learn how to make judgments and decisions about their own and others' poetry, especially as it develops their own poetry practice. They will read a wide variety of poetry and critical/theoretical texts to gain an understanding of poetic perspectives and the role of poetry in different cultures and their own lives. Students learn about imitation, sound, the poetic line, given forms, rhythm and meter, diction, tone and voice, imagery and metaphor, revision, and other concepts of poetry writing. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL& 101 (formerly ENG 101) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.

5.00 Credits
H - Students choose to focus on writing the short story or novel and learn to make decisions about their own and others' fiction, especially as it develops individual writing practices. The course emphasizes exploring a variety of literary elements and taking a narrative from start to finish. Students read a wide range of short stories and novels by multicultural writers to understand more clearly how different writers employ specific techniques, and to understand the role of fiction in different cultures and their own lives. Students "workshop" their stories and provide weeklycritiques of their classmates' stories and novel excerpts. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL& 101 (formerly ENG 101) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.

5.00 Credits
H - Students will be introduced to the narrative structure and elements of storytelling as used in film, video, gaming and educational media. Our process will build upon the three act film screenplay. Alternative forms will be explored with a dual emphasis on shared elements and idiosyncratic form-based challenges and expectations. Learning will integrate the literary forms with commercial expectations while developing an understanding of how to produce scripts that are emotionally fulfilling, creative and profitable. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL& 101 (formerly ENG 101) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.

5.00 Credits
In this 5-credit course, students will analyze forces acting on particles and rigid bodies in equilibrium. Topics will include force and moment resultants, free body diagrams, internal forces, friction, centroids, and moment of inertia. Emphasis will be placed on real-world application and technology will be integrated throughout the course. A graphing calculator is required. Prerequisite(s): Completion of MATH& 163 (formerly MATH 150) and PHYS& 221 (formerly PHYS 121) with grades of 2.0 or higher.
-
5.00 Credits
NS - In this 5 credit course, students will analyze kinematics of particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies; moving reference frames; dynamics of particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies; equilibrium, energy, linear momentum, angular momentum. Emphasis will be placed on real-world applications and technology will be integrated throughout the course. A graphing calculator is required. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGR& 114 (formerly ENGR 210) with grade of 2.0 or higher.
-
5.00 Credits
NS - In this 5 credit course, students will analyze the basic theories of stress and strain and their application to the properties and behavior of engineering materials. They will develop an understanding of the subject through an examination of how specific geometry and loads, intrinsic material properties, and the fundamental constitutive relations governing material behavior in general can be used to predict how materials react to loads. Students will explore this behavior by modeling it in the context of realistic situations. Further, they will examine modes of material failure and learn strategies useful in predicting and preventing it. Technology will be integrated throughout the course, and a graphing calculator is required. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGR& 114 (formerly ENGR 210) with grade of 2.0 or higher.
-
5.00 Credits
GS,NS - In this course, students examine Earth's systems function and environmental change, both past and present, using a global perspective. Students gain a historical perspective of the natural changes and feedback mechanisms among Earth's physical systems (lithosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere) and biological systems (biosphere). Students then contrast these natural changes with human-induced changes to understand the complexity and mechanisms of human activities on the environment. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL 090 (formerly ENG 090) with a grade of 2.0 or higher or placement by testing in ENGL 100 (formerly ENG 100). (LAB)
-
5.00 Credits
NS - This course is an interdisciplinary exploration of environmental issues. Students will study specific environmental concerns within a conventional environmental science framework in order to thoroughly understand their nature as well as develop realistic solutions. Students will be required to conduct research, gather and analyze actual data, develop conclusions, and use those conclusions to develop and analyze policy. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL 090 (formerly ENG 090) with a grade of 2.0 or higher or placement by testing in ENGL 100 (formerly ENG 100).
-
5.00 Credits
NS - Regional environmental change within Puget Sound is the focus of this course. Students learn the characteristics and functions of ecological systems in the region and examine current controversies surrounding urbanization, species protection and resource protection. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL 090 (formerly ENG 090) with a grade of 2.0 or higher or placement by testing in ENGL 100 (formerly ENG 100). (LAB)
-
5.00 Credits
NS - Wetlands are a valuable and integral resource in both urban and rural environments. This course will examine the functions and values wetlands provide through the unique interplay that exists between soils, hydrology, and the biotic community in these environments. Students will explore the large wetland restoration project located on-campus through 'handson'field laboratories. Off-site field trips will also be taken to examine the diversity and variability of local wetlands. Prerequisite(s): Completion of one of the following: BIOL 120 or greater, CHEM& 121 (formerly CHEM 120) or greater, ENVS& 101 (formerly ENVS 110) or greater, GEOL& 101 (formerly GEOL 101) or greater, or NSCI 101 with a grade of 2.0 or higher. (LAB)
