  • ISBT 102: Living Systems Technology

    4.00 Credits
    La Salle University

    4 credits Students (working in teams) will be required to select 2 to 3 technologies that are derived from the sciences they were introduced to in ISBT 101. Students will analyze the technology from its inception to its current status. The analysis will include business considerations, an understanding of the basic science, moral, social, and ethical issues related to the technology, and a summary suggesting a future for the technology. Each team will be required to prepare both written and oral presentations. Prerequisite: ISBT 101.

  • ISBT 111: Technology And Systems Analysis

    4.00 Credits
    La Salle University

    4 credits This course will introduce students to the field of systems analysis and to the broad spectrum of technologies that are integrated into the design, construction, and operation of a high-tech electronic commercial product. The product will be disassembled into its simplest parts followed by an analysis of the form, function, and fundamental physical-science-basis of each component. Using laboratory computers, equipment, and software tools, students will assemble the components into a working prototype of the commercial product.

  • ISBT 202: Technology And Business Analysis

    4.00 Credits
    La Salle University

    4 credits This course will continue the student's exploration of existing technologies and the process of commercialization. Students, working in teams, will create companies and analyze three different technologies as if their companies were creating and developing those technologies. Specifically, the students will need to demonstrate the science of the technology in the laboratory, define the need, analyze the sales and marketing plan, understand the moral and ethical implication, and calculate costs and profitability. The students will assess the business-state of the technology and recommend directions in which the technology should expand. Each team will be required to prepare both written and oral presentations. Teams will be required to select a technology from each of the ISBT areas of concentration, i.e.: biotechnology, energy and natural resources, and information and knowledge management. Analysis of a technology from each of the areas will prepare students to choose their area of concentration. Prerequisite: ISBT 111 and 201.

  • ISBT 211: Instrumentation And Measurement

    4.00 Credits
    La Salle University

    4 credits This course will examine the acquisition of data through an analysis of measurement transducers, instrument design, and computer data-acquisition and interfacing. The descriptive statistics and data-visualization techniques required to transform raw data into useful information will be investigated in a laboratory setting. The incorporation of multiple measurements into process-level monitoring and control systems will be studied with respect to the various commercially available intelligent instruments, industrial network architectures, and information control systems.
