2.00 Credits
1 cl hr, a minimum of 5 independent study hrs per wk, 2 cr This course serves as the senior thesis project. The student will either: 1) act in a principal supervisory role in a production as a designer or technical director; 2) propose, design and build a specialized piece of show equipment; or 3) develop a project which utilizes his/her skills in a new and innovative way that relates to or has an impact on the entertainment industry. All projects must be approved by the advisor and should demonstrate management, technical design and presentation skills. Documentation of planning, design and realization will be presented to a committee of instructors, both in entertainment technology and related disciplines, as well as industry professionals; all are to be selected by the students and approved by the advisor. Though students will enroll in the course during their senior year, development of the project should begin during the second semester of the junior year. Prerequisites: ENT 4421/ST 421, ENT 4430/ST 430 and (ENT 4450/ST 450 or ENT 4470/ST 471 or ENT 4480/ST 480)
-
3.00 Credits
2 cl hrs every other wk, 135 internship hrs, 3 cr Work experience at a professional scenery fabrication shop, rental/supply house, off-Broadway theater, or any related industry organization approved by the advisor. This will serve to bridge the student's academic and commercial careers by giving the student professional work experience and industry contacts before the end of the senior year. Each student will keep a log/journal to be shared in group seminars. Supervision will be by faculty and a manager at the internship site. Prerequisites: ENT 4450/ST 450 or ENT 4470/ST 471 or ENT 4480/ST 480

3.00 Credits
3 cl hrs, 3 cr An introductory lecture course which teaches the basic principles, equations and analytical approaches used in the design of air conditioning systems. Students learn the physical principles of work, power, energy, pressure, specific volume, density, heat and enthalpy. They learn fundamental properties of steam and air, the pressuretemperature relationships of gases, basic principles of hot water and steam heating systems, and procedures for calculating heat losses from buildings. Prerequisite: None
-
1.00 Credits
3 lab hrs, 1 cr An introductory laboratory course in which students become familiar with piping, tubing, ductwork, soldering, brazing, swaging, threading and flaring. Different types of gauges, manometers, measuring and testing instruments will be used to measure air velocity, pressures and densities of substances. Elements of electricity, basic electrical control circuits and electrical test instruments will be introduced. Prerequisite: None
-
2.00 Credits
1 cl hr, 2 lab hrs, 2 cr A drafting course designed to train students to read and represent graphically in the heating, ventilating and air conditioning field. They learn to letter, draw linework, use drafting instruments and standard HVAC representations, draw orthographic and isometric projections of HVAC equipment, and work with architectural, structural and lighting plans to lay out HVAC systems. Prerequisite: None
-
3.00 Credits
3 cl hrs, 3 cr A lecture course which teaches the design and operation of combustion equipment and boilers. Students learn the properties and handling of fuels, the chemistry of combustion, flame safety controls, boiler design and rating, gas and oil burners, boiler maintenance and safety, design of breeching and stacks, and the control of air pollution caused by combustion. Prerequisite: ENVC 1110/EC 110
-
1.00 Credits
3 lab hrs, 1 cr A laboratory course in which students work on oil burners, gas burners, steam and hydronic boilers, draft and combustion efficiency testing, boiler and burner safety and operating controls, reading control wiring diagrams and wiring electrical control components.
