3.00 Credits
A rigorous and hands-on exposure to the fundamental thinking, hardware, and techniques common to instrumental analysis as performed in a modern chemical laboratory. The following methods are emphasized: visible, ultraviolet, and infrared spectroscopy, atomic absorption methods, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy, and gas and high pressure liquid chromatography. A survey of microscopy, calorimetry, and selected electronic and electrical concepts to instrumentation will also be included.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to introduce the student to construction materials commonly used in the construction of commercial and residential structures. The emphasis will be on wood, masonry, concrete, soils and structural steel. Students will study the physical properties of the materials as well as how the materials are manufactured to produce a satisfactory product for the construction process.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to fundamental design, architectural design drawing and applied drawing techniques. Students are introduced in lecture to design and drawing principles, techniques and conventions used to develop and communicate architectural ideas. Lab assignments emphasize the relationship between drawing and three-dimensional form and space, and include exercises in basic design and model-making. Topics include principles of design and architectural theory, observational sketching, depicting light, texture and depth, analytical drawing, orthographic and paraline projection systems, and professional standards for layout, lettering, use of line weights, and dimensioning of architectural drawings.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will take students through a comprehensive history of animated films beginning with their conception in the early 1900's through the present. Students will learn how the medium reflects social issues, political views as well as human creativity. The various types of animation and how they were created in different countries and cultures will be the major focus. The screenings and discussions will span various genres and styles of animation including anime, experimental, commercial, computer, and independent film as well as gaming.
-
3.00 Credits
This is an introductory digital media course that focuses on the manipulation of both raster and vector-based imagery. Students will learn the basics of Photoshop as well as digital photography and use the software to develop their skills in the visualization of motion and time. The course will have a strong emphasis on principles of lighting, layout and composition.
-
3.00 Credits
This is a visual rendering course in the Computer Art and Design major. Broad experience is emphasized with diverse graphic tools and techniques to develop observation of and analyze visual information. This course is designed to deconstruct preconceived ideas of form/space relationships and replace them with objective understandings.
-
3.00 Credits
This is a course that focuses on creative, technical, and environmental/collaborative issues involved in visual communication. Building on the elements and principles of design/communication the students work through increasingly difficult projects to their final cumulative piece. An investigation of color theory as it applies to traditional and computer generated images is also pursued.
-
3.00 Credits
This survey course examines the selection, specification, composition, manufacture, and application of finishes and materials in interior design and presents an overview of furniture construction, types, planning and selection. Labs have outside student preparation beyond scheduled laboratory times.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a fundamental course that investigates the properties and principles of basic color theory and its interrelationship with lighting. The focus is on the psychological and physiological effects of color and lighting as they apply to the form, texture, and finish of interior spaces. It also provides a basic understanding of lighting calculations, types of lamps and their uses. Additionally, there will be a segment on calculations related to acoustical performance.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to the fundamental principles of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems for residential and commercial buildings. MEP system components, their integration into the building, and energy conservation are discussed and illustrated. Students will design various residential systems and will solve problems related to heat loss, fuel usage, fixture quantity, and supply and drain, waste, and vent piping. Evaluation of a student's achievement will be based on examinations, participation in class discussion, homework assignments, and a home heating project.
