  • LAWEN 499: Capstone Seminar and Applied Project in Law

    3.00 Credits
    Philadelphia University

    Enforcement Leadership Using concepts learned in CPS Core Coursework and Law Enforcement Leadership courses, students conduct an indepth analysis of the law enforcement industry and design an innovative law enforcement initiative. Students will use knowledge of statistical analysis, process planning and date gathering to complete their analysis and report on a sector or organization in the industry. Students will demonstrate their ability to assess the efficacy of a program design as well as describe the project planning and implementation processes. Students' projects will be evaluated based on the capacity to incorporate familiarity with systems and planning in a comprehensive project analyzing the dynamics of the law enforcement industry in the context of their project. Prerequisites: LAWEN- 301, LAWEN- 310, LAWEN- 410, MGMT- 320

    Philadelphia University

    (writing intensive) The study of the interrelationships between literature and film through case studies of the translation of significant novels (focus on 19th and 20th century) into works of cinema. Prerequisites: SOC-2XX, WRTG-21X Quantitative Reasoning As part of the College Studies requirements, students will take two courses in mathematics. The specific course sequence will be determined by the student's major and the level of mathematics with which the student enters the University as demonstrated by previous coursework and/or placement testing. The two-course sequences are: MATH-100/101 Finite Mathematics and MATH-103 Introduction to Calculus or MATH-102 Pre-Calculus and MATH-103 Introduction to Calculus or MATH-102 Pre-Calculus and MATH-111 Calculus I or MATH-111 Calculus I and MATH-112 Calculus II MATH-099 (Formerly M99) 3-2-(3) Fundamentals of College Mathematics This course covers those topics in arithmetic and algebra that are essential to further work involving mathematics. Students will study fractions, decimals and percentages, signed numbers, linear and quadratic equations, exponents and scientific notation, factoring, techniques of graphing, equations of straight lines and linear systems of equations. There will be an emphasis on applications. Use of the scientific calculator will be discussed. Credits earned may not be applied toward graduation requirements. Students must earn a "C" or better to receive credit for fundamentals courses.See "Fundamentals Courses" in the section "AcademiPolicies." Students required to take MATH-099 must pass the course before taking CHEM 103, Chemistry I.
