ENGL110XM - College Composition I - Corequisite College Composition I introduces students to the practice of academic writing and research. A review of critical reading and thinking skills is included as an essential foundation to academic understanding and inquiry. Students conduct intensive research on a contemporary problem, grounding themselves in its context, causes, and possible solutions to produce a documented Central Course Essay. Research methods covered include locating, integrating, and citing source materials as well as appropriate use of quotes, paraphrases, and summaries. Basic information literacy skills such as evaluating sources for credibility and identifying mis/dis/mal-information, particularly in online materials, are emphasized. Writing is approached as an iterative process that engages various stages and employs a variety of rhetorical approaches to produce a polished final essay. Prerequisite: Placement into ENGL 110XM or completion of ENGL 095M with a grade of C or better. College Composition I – Corequisite provides additional support to students who need to build stronger foundational skills through mandatory additional class time. Corequisite support may be any combination of additional instruction; application of reading, writing, and research skills; and one-on-one support from the instructor.

ETEC260M - Renewable and Alternative Energy Systems This course will be a presentation of the theory, installation, maintenance, and operation of primary types of renewable and alternative energy systems. Primary focus will be on photovoltaic systems, wind generating systems, and backup generators. Prerequisites: ETEC 210M or ETEC 220M.

ETEC250M - Advanced Controls I - Digital Fundamentals - PLC Basics This course covers the fundamentals of digital logic, digital circuit components, computer number systems, Boolean algebra, all basic logic gates, timer chips, Schmitt triggers, digital to analog converters, analog to digital converters, binary coded decimal encoders, basic microcomputer architecture, an introduction to programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and ladder logic in mechatronic systems. The basics of digital logic control, basic PLC modules and components, analog and digital I/O, programming concepts in ladder logic with reference to IEC61131 specification (an industry accepted programming standard for PLC’s), and PLC system components will be covered. Students will learn the role digital components and PLCs play within an electronic / mechatronic system or subsystem. They will also learn basic elements of PLC functions by implementing / reviewing small programs and testing these programs logically and / or on an actual system. Students will learn to identify malfunctioning PLCs and digital circuits, as well as to apply troubleshooting strategies to identify and localize problems found in digital systems and PLC’s. Prerequisites: ETEC210M or ETEC220M

PHIL240M - Ethics This course is designed to introduce students to some classical and contemporary ethical perspectives, philosophies, and decision-making models. The goal of this course is to relate and apply such knowledge to modern day life; hence any concepts, models, and theories presented will also often be applied to specific problems and cases. Applications may include general ethical issues and/or more career specific issues, (to be determined by student/faculty needs or interests). Prerequisite: ENGL110M with a grade of “C” or better.
