An analysis of the historical development of man and technology as antecedents of the technological society. Students will interact with the domains of technology through problem-solving applications of engineering problems. A study of the basic knowledge and understanding of the societal impacts of technology. Students will research basic fi elds in technology such as medicine, manufacturing, communication, transportation, biotechnology, environmental issues, technology transfer, and appropriate technology, to determine current trends. Students will be required to select one area where technology has affected society in a positive and/or negative way. Each student will be required to research and make an oral presentation on the selected topic.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended as a survey of the discipline of technology. The goal of the course is to foster some measure of technological literacy and an understanding of the uniqueness of technology in human endeavors. Instruction will consist of lectures, media presentations, discussions and class activities.
-

This course is the beginning class for all students interested in a heavy equipment career. Many employers require a commercial driver’s license of the employee. This course supports a CDL by providing the student with instruction on preventive maintenance practices, scheduled procedures, documents, and D.O.T. required record system and on determining the needs for repair.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides incoming students with the prerequisite knowledge and skills for required technology systems classes that follow. Students will study the philosophy, rationale, and current curriculum trends in Technology Education. The course will also focus on basic design and drafting techniques, laboratory and machine tool safety practices and design and problem-solving processes used in technological career fi elds. Class methodology will include both lecture and applied experiences with tools, equipment and processes of technology.
-
3.00 Credits
This course addresses the mechanical, fl uid, electrical, electronic and computer instrumentation used to regulate technical products and systems. Students will develop knowledge and skills of common control-related components/devices and apply them to the solution of practical problems found in typical technology education settings. CR: TECH 1104.
-
1.00 - 12.00 Credits
A study of special topics of educational, technical, or industrial concern. PR: instructor’s consent.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the means by which mass is moved from one point to another. This will be achieved by studying the propulsion, guidance, control, suspension, structure and support elements of a wide variety of transportation subsystems. Students will complete an historic timeline of transportation and will deliver an oral presentation on a specifi c transportation propulsion system. PR: TECH 1104.
-
4.00 Credits
This course deals with an introduction to the inputs, processes and outputs of the manufacturing system. The methodology of the course will involve students with selected research, development and production processes of the manufacturing system. More specifi cally, each student will design and engineer a middle school- or high schoollevel product. They will then perform selected production planning, plant engineering, and quality control activities to prepare their product for mass-production. The results of these activities will be developed into camera-ready copy production packets. Finally, each student will set up a production line for the class to mass-produce a limited number of their products, using jigs, fi xtures, and/or other mass-production related tooling. PR: MANF 1100, TECH 1104.
-
4.00 Credits
This introductory course in construction is designed to acquaint students with the impacts of construction on society, basic concepts of architectural design, construction accoutrements (materials, tools and equipment), specifi cations and contracts, and processes involved in residential construction. Students will complete an historic timeline of construction and will deliver an oral presentation on a specifi c residential construction topic. Students will perform several traditional construction activities such as materials testing, card structures, and building a residential model. PR: TECH 1104, MANF 1100.
