8.00 Credits
Fall This course will cover actual scanning of the heart in a hospital or clinic setting. Students will learn how to produce and interpret normal and pathognomonic sonograms of the heart. If a student's clinical performance is unsatisfactory or if at any time the student's clinical performance compromises the safety of the patient, the student will be terminated from the program. NOTE: Students are given either a pass or fail grade for this course with no quality points awarded. Open only to matriculated Echocardiography students. Corequisite: ECHO 252, Echocardiography Principles & Instrumentation; ECHO 254, Echocardiography I; ECHO 256, Anatomy & Physiology of the Heart.

3.00 Credits
Spring This is an in-depth study of the pathologies related to the heart, their physiological symptoms and outcomes, and their sonographic appearance. An in-depth study of each anatomical aspect of the heart and its correlative disease processes will be covered. Case reviews and diagnostic interpretations will help students to understand this intricate organ and the pathologies associated with it. Open only to matriculated Echocardiography and Invasive Cardiovascular Technology students. Prerequisites: ECHO 254, Echocardiography I; ECHO 256, Anatomy and Physiology of the Heart.

8.00 Credits
Spring In this course students will scan the heart and peripheral vasculature in a hospital or clinic setting. Students will learn how to produce and interpret normal and pathological echocardiograms of the heart. This is an extension of the learning that the student obtained during the first term. Imaging of the heart will be accomplished utilizing such modalities as doppler, color doppler, m-mode, EKG, and 2-dimensional imaging. NOTE: Students are given either a pass or fail grade for this course with no quality points awarded. If the student's clinical performance is unsatisfactory or if at any time the student compromises the safety of a patient, the student will be terminated from the program. Open only to matriculated Echocardiography students. Prerequisite: ECHO 258, Echocardiography Clinic I. Corequisites: SONO 262, Diagnostic Sonography II; ECHO 266, Pathology of the Heart.

13.00 Credits
Summer In this course, students will gain advanced and intense scanning experience of the heart in a hospital or clinical setting. Students will be prepared to function as beginning echocardiographers and will be ready to sit for the RDCS examination given in October. This course is an extension of the learning that students encountered during their first and second terms. Studentswill be able to carry out the everyday duties of an echocardiographer when the training is complete. NOTE: Students are given either a pass or fail grade for this course with no quality points awarded. If the student's clinical performance is unsatisfactory or if at any time the student compromises the safety of a patient, the student will be terminated from the program. Open only to matriculated Echocardiography students. Prerequisite: ECHO 268, Echocardiography II.

2.00 Credits
On demand This course explores fetal echocardiography, which has become an integral part of obstetrics sonography. Sonography examinations of the inutero human heart can diagnose congenital heart disease, which may alter clinical care. The sonographer is obligated to perform a basic fetal heart survey on every fetal sonogram. This course follows the basics of fetal echocardiography, not only for the ARDMS examinations, but for the sonographer who is performing obstetrics and cardiac sonography. Open only to matriculated Echocardiography students.
-
4.00 Credits
Fall A study of electricity as it applies to the electrical construction and maintenance field. Conductors, insulators, batteries, direct current circuits and magnetism, as well as an introduction to alternating current theory. Open only to matriculated Electrical Construction and Maintenance students. Corequisite: MATH 105, Applied Technical Mathematics I; ECMN 111, Direct Current Applications Laboratory.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring A continuation of ECMN 101 covering capacitors, inductors, alternating current circuits, single phase three wire systems, three phase systems, and transmission and distribution of power. Open only to matriculated Electrical Construction and Maintenance students. Prerequisite: ECMN 101, Direct Current Theory and Magnetism. Corequisite: MATH 106, Applied Technical Mathematics II; ECMN 112, Alternating Current Applications Laboratory.
-
1.00 Credits
Fall Lab fee will be required. The laboratory experiments closely parallel and are correlated with electric theory. Provides experience in the selection and use of test instruments such as the ammeter, voltmeter, VOM, wheatstone bridge, megger, ohmmeter, wattmeter, and oscilloscope. The student is thus enabled to analyze basic DC circuits and to prove and better understand the theory fundamentals. Open only to matriculated Electrical Construction and Maintenance students. Corequisite with ECMN 101, Direct Current Theory and Magnetism.
-
1.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. A continuation of ECMN 111, Electric Laboratory I,with emphasis on electromagnetic electro statics, and theAC circuits, provides further experience in the selection of proper instrument for use in AC circuit. The use of the voltmeter, ammeter, wattmeter, amprobe, capacitor analyzer, and other instruments enable the student to prove out theory and better understand the principles and characteristics of electrical devices. Individual research is encouraged to enable the student to keep abreast of field development. Open only to matriculated Electrical Construction and Maintenance students. Corequisite: ECMN 102, Alternating Current Theory.
-
5.00 Credits
Fall Lab fee will be required. In this course students study and practice the methods used in the installation of residential electrical systems. Topics include: basic shop skills, lighting outlets and switches, services, metering, overcurrent devices, conductors and special circuits. Layout skills are developed and the national Electric Code is emphasized. Safe working practices are insisted upon in all shops at all times. Open only to matriculated Electrical Construction and Maintenance students. Corequisite: ECMN 101, Direct Current Theory and Magnetism, or IDLT 120, Electricity.
