4.00 Credits
Medically oriented study of the structure and function of the human body, using homeostasis as a unifying concept. Topics include overviews of the scientific method, chemistry of life, cell biology and tissue structure and function, in addition to detailed coverage of the skeletal, muscular, endocrine, integumentary, and reproductive systems with pertinent pathology discussion. Competency in these topics is demonstrated through oral discussion, written tests, and laboratory practical examinations. Intended for students specializing in health-related and science programs.
Prerequisite:
Placement by Examination OR MTH 005 AND Placement by Examination OR RDG 111
Corequisite:
ENL 111

-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to industrial design techniques, aesthetic concepts, and practical rendering skills. Integration of aesthetics, ergonomics, material selection, and safety principles into product design. Creative solutions to design problems using two and three dimensional renderings in sketches, clay models, and optional castings of designs. (Formerly BID 110)
-
3.00 Credits
Techniques for model making and building physical models in different media. Integration of aesthetics, ergonomics, and functionality into a design using sheet, soft material, and casting. Modeling materials will include polystyrene plastic, foam core, clay, foam blocks, clay and various casting materials. Texture and painting effects on models, including furniture, vehicles, and consumer products. Introduction of design by physical, real time creation. (Formerly BID 130)
-
3.00 Credits
Study of human factors as they relate to design. Advanced study of ergonomic and kinesiologic principles, including anthropometry, size variations in individuals and groups, reach, hand articulation, human movement, seating, posture, nerves and circulation, sight parameters, thresholds of hearing vibration, and psychometrics. Overview of end-user psychology and the relationship of design interfaces to physical, semantic, and cultural constraints.
Prerequisite:
BIX 110
-
3.00 Credits
Principles of material mechanics, engineering, safety, and sustainable design. Topics include material stress and strain relationships, thermal expansion, vibration, fatigue, corrosion, buckling, failure analysis, thermodynamics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics, as well as an introduction to various mechanical drives and linkages. Focus on the design integration of product safety, intrinsically safe designs and regulatory issues related to safety with additional emphasis on sustainable design, considering embodied energy and product life cycle.
Prerequisite:
BIX 110 AND MTH 160 OR BIX 110 AND MTH 153
-
