3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Placement test score indicating ENG* K101 or successful completion of ENG* K100 with a "C" grade or better. This course is an introduction to the content and process of epistemology, metaphysics, and ethics is presented. The course will portray philosophizing as an active and dynamic life experience aimed at the creation of a world view. The course is designed to represent philosophy as an integrated experience of mind, body, feeling, and intuition.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ENG* K101. This course will cover the fundamentals of ethics, including an introduction to the origins and nature of moral right and responsibility. Students will analyze and formulate positions on contemporary ethical issues.

Prerequisite: Placement test score indicating ENG* K101 or completion of ENG* K100 with a "C" grade or better. This course will begin by providing students with a philosophical framework that will be used to understand the world's major religious traditions. What is religion How do each of the traditions considered illustrate the workings of myth, practice, experience, and community and how do all of these elements come together in the construction of a worldview particular to each We will focus on Indigenous religious traditions, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. We may also examine other religious expressions including emerging visions. Many topics will be interwoven into our studies including theistic, non-theistic, mystical, and devotional approaches, theological problems such as theodicy, as well as many social and ethical issues of current concern, particularly the role of women in traditional and emerging expressions. Course fulfills International/Intercultural Requirement.

3.00 Credits
Corequisite: MAT* K095 Optics is the science underlying technologies such as laser manufacturing, 3-D holograms, arthroscropic surgery, CD and DVD technology, fiber optic telecommunications and high efficiency LED lighting. In this course we will explore the nature, production and behavior of light while learning about light sources and applications in technology and nature. Hands-on activities, team projects and demonstrations are used to illustrate concepts. (The online courses uses "home labs" for this purpose. Algebra and some trigonometry will be used. This course is equivalent to PHY* K103 Photonics Concepts). One 2 hour lecture; one 2 hour lab.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PHO* K101 and PHO* K105 or TCN* K105 or permission of instructor. Building on the foundation of PHO* K101, this course will introduce more sophisticated optical systems and mathematical analysis. Topics will include thick lenses, matrix methods of optics, aberrations, stops and pupils, interferometry, Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction and polarization. Emphasis will be on applications of optics in modern technology. All laboratory section will reinforce concepts through hands-on experiments and team projects. This course is equivalent to PHY* K141 Applied Optics.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: EET* K105/106 and MAT K137. This course introduces semiconductor technology and devices, with an emphasis on optoelectronic devices, including LEDs, laser diodes, and photodiodes. Analysis and design of circuits containing these devices will be covered, as will current applications. The course includes a lab component.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: EET* K134/135 or PHO* K140 and PHO* K105 or TCN* K105 or permission of instructor. This course will focus on the design and analysis of electronic circuits and devices of particular interest to the field of photonics, including LEDs, LDs, and their driver circuitry; optical receivers, laser and flash lamp power supplies; displays; opt-isolators; optical sensors; solar cells; direct and external modulators. The lab portion of the course includes experiments and simulations to parallel the lecture.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MAT* K186, and PHO* K101, PHO* K105 or TCN* K105, or permission of instructor. This course provides an introduction to the physics of lasers, laser output characteristics, types of lasers and their applications. Optical concepts will be used extensively to explain the operation of lasers and laser related devices. Current online and print journals will be used as references.
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MAT* K186, and PHO* K101, PHO* K105 or TCN* K105, or permission of instructor. Co-requisite: PHO* K241 This is a companion laboratory to PHO* K241 Introduction to Lasers. The lab will reinforce classroom physics and technology concepts and introduce common industry laser instrumentation such as the optical spectrum analyzer and laser beam profiling system.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: EET* K105/106, MAT* K186, and PHO* K101 or permission of instructor. Co- requisite: PHO* K252 is required for LFOT majors This course will introduce parameters describing optical fibers, fiber optic system components, waveguide transmission as well as non-telecommunications uses of fiber. Fiber coupling, splicing, and testing will also be covered. Concepts from optics and electronics will be used extensively to explain the operation of fiber systems and devices.
