CBAM101M - Manufacturing Career Prep This course is designed to provide students with the essential skills and knowledge required for a successful career in the manufacturing industry. Focusing on both technical and interpersonal skills, this course covers key areas such as resume writing, interview skills, career exploration and networking. In addition to basic technical training, the course will emphasize the development of workplace communication, teamwork, and critical thinking skills. At the end of the course, students will be prepared to enter the manufacturing workforce, whether in entry-level positions or pursuing further specialization in areas such as machining, production planning, or industrial maintenance. Prerequisite: None

AUTO1032M - Brake Systems AUTO1032M is a comprehensive course including theory, repair and service procedures with an emphasis on diagnosis of cutting-edge braking systems. This course includes principles of hydraulics, service brakes, electronic braking systems and controls. This course provides an opportunity to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to diagnose and service today's complex brake systems. Using the skills and knowledge learned, students will perform the same procedures, and diagnose brake and related system concerns on today’s automobiles and light trucks just as a technician would in an automotive service department. AUTO1032M is a summer semester course. Tools identified on the student tool list are required for this course. Note that for the AEP, MCAP, MLR, and SU pathways, on-line training may be required to receive credit for this course. Successful completion of AUTO1011M, AUTO1012M, and AUTO1022M with a minimum grade of C is required to register for this course. Prerequisites: Successful completion of AUTO1011M, AUTO1012M, and AUTO1022Mwith a minimum grade of C.

ECE202M - Student Teaching Practicum The Student Teaching Practicum requires that students spend a minimum of 117 hours in a college – approved early childhood facility under guided supervision of the classroom teacher (approximately 9 hours/week). Students will bridge the gap between theory and practice by applying theoretical knowledge and developmentally appropriate methodology in their work with young children. Students will assume increasing responsibility for teaching and classroom management throughout the semester, culminating in a week-long experience in which the student takes the role of the lead teacher in planning and implementing the curriculum, and will be formally observed by the college instructor at least 3 times. Weekly seminars are scheduled to discuss issues of appropriate practice, discipline, lesson plans, observations, and other concerns. Students are required to experience two different age groups and two different settings across the two senior level practicum courses (ECE 202M & ECE 212M). Note that a grade of C or better is required in this class in order to move on to the final practicum, ECE 212M. A Taskstream electronic portfolio subscription is required. Prerequisites: ECE100M, ECE104M, and a grade of C or better in ECE111M or ECE112M.

HIST130M - Western Civilization - 1500 to the Present This course surveys the development of civilization in the Western world from circa 1500 CE to the present. This course will focus on the complex interactions of the social, religious, economic, ecological, and political factors that shaped the various eras of Western history. This course will emphasize history as the record of human struggle and achievement and will explore patterns of change and continuity over time. Prerequisite: Placement into ENGL110M. (Fulfills Social Sciences or Humanities requirement)

WELD112M - Gas and Arc Welding Theory This course will allow students to explore how metals are produced, as well as the advantages of different steel making processes. Chemical, physical and mechanical properties of common metals, the operating principles of gas and arc welding and cutting equipment will be presented. An explanation of how electrodes are made, their uses, differences and numbering system will be explained. Gas and arc welding processes are identified and methods of controlling are explained. Basic joints and processes are explained.

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.

ETEC160M - Commercial and Industrial Wiring This course presents comprehensive coverage of the requirements and methods for wiring commercial and industrial installations. The subject matter will include interpretation and analysis of electrical schematics, load calculations, equipment types and applications, special occupancies, special equipment, and special conditions as they relate to these installation types. The National Electrical Code will be an integral part of this course. The material presented in this course satisfies NH Electrical Apprentice training requirements. Laboratory work will reinforce and promote the application of theoretical concepts. Prerequisites: ETEC120M and MATH135M, or permission of Program Coordinator. Corequisite: MATH151M

MATH299M - Mathematics Capstone Taken in a student’s final semester of study, the LIBA/Mathematics Capstone provides students with an opportunity to synthesize the knowledge gained in their previous coursework. Students develop and personalize an individual research topic/project based on an area of interest. The individualized project will require students to demonstrate proficiency in research, critical thinking, and communication as well as an awareness of global perspectives. Students will be expected to consult with faculty in their area of interest in an advisory capacity. Prerequisite: Completion of a minimum of 48 credits including ENGL110M, MATH220M, MATH222M and CIS122M with a grade of "C" or better.

ETEC265M - Troubleshooting Electrical and Electronic Systems This course covers the aspects of troubleshooting electrical and electronic systems. Subject matter includes electrical and electronic system applications, step-by-step troubleshooting procedures, and reinforcement of the concepts presented. This course is not intended for State of NH electrician’s apprenticeship training. However, this course may be taken as a continuing education course for renewal of State of NH licensure. This is a theory course only with no lab component. Prerequisites: ETEC110M or permission of ETEC Program Coordinator or Chair.
