ROBO211M - Robotic Design Students will design a robot according to specifications for the functions and tasks the robot needs to complete. This will involve many critical features of the robot needed to meet the specified requirements. The course will cover the entire design processes, such as defining the problem, researching and designing, creating a prototype, building a robot, programming and testing, and finally the evaluation of the robot design to the specifications. Prerequisites: MATH090M with a grade of “C” or better.

BIOL109M - College Biology II This intense college level biology class is the continuation of BIOL108M. It covers evolutionary biology, classification, organisms and populations, and ecology. This course emphasizes science as a process, scientific inquiry, and critical thinking as applied to the topics covered. Pre-requisites: High School Biology and Chemistry with a C or better and placement into ENGL110M or permission of the instructor.

ECE104M - Foundations of Early Childhood Education This course takes an in-depth look at the 6 guidelines of Developmentally Appropriate Practice, as described by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), with a strong emphasis on play as the foundation of learning. The course also provides an overview of the field of Early Childhood Education, including the history of child care and current/ future trends in the field. Students will be introduced to the NH Early Learning Standards, the Pyramid Model, and the NH Child Care QRIS system. Observation of two different early learning programs is required. Prerequisites: None

FYE100M - MCC Essentials Whether you are a recent or not-so-recent high school graduate, MCC Essentials will introduce you to the people, resources, and services that will help you reach your goal of career or transfer. The class covers academic and career planning; options for financing college and their impact on your short and long-term financial well-being; the supports and resources available to help you become a proactive learner with strong self-advocacy skills. Strategies to help you make the most of your time and tuition dollars are introduced. Most importantly, the course is about helping you create a strong campus community and a healthy support system by connecting you to your faculty, your advisors, and your peers. This course is required in the first semester for new students. Students transferring in 15+ college credits with a CGPA of 3.0 or better may elect to waive the course. Prerequisites: None

MATH200M - Finite Mathematics This course covers mathematical ideas important to students of business and social sciences. Topics include a review of linear equations, systems of equations and inequalities, mathematics of finance, sets and counting, an introduction to probability, matrix algebra, linear programming. This course may include other topics such as logic or game theory when time permits. Prerequisite: Satisfactory placement

CBAM110M - Industrial Print Reading and Metrology This hands-on course provides students with an introduction to mechanical measurement techniques and engineering blueprint reading. Through practical experience and guided instruction, students will learn to accurately interpret mechanical drawings including tolerances, welding symbology, and Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T), and perform precise measurements using a variety of instruments. Students will engage in real-world scenarios that develop skills critical to the manufacturing industry. The course will emphasize the importance of precision, ensuring students can confidently read engineering blueprints and verify that mechanical components meet design specifications. Prerequisite: None

ADMT112M - Introduction to Engineering Design and Solid Modeling This problem based learning course covers the knowledge and skills needed to explore the engineering design process. Individual projects, team projects and laboratory exercises will be used to continually hone the student’s interpersonal skills, creative abilities and understanding of the design process. Everyday products will be examined for historical, societal, design, safety, and manufacturing perspectives. Topics include ideation, sketching, design constraints, solid modeling, decision making, statistical quality control, manufacturing methods, and engineering analysis. Students will develop an appreciation for good design and the ability to communicate design ideas via 3D modelling, written and oral reports. There are lectures, demonstrations, and a series of lab exercises designed to reinforce what the student has learned. This course uses the latest version of the Solidworks design software. Prerequisites: None

HVAC122M - Fundamentals of Refrigeration II Lab A continuation of Fundamentals of Refrigeration I. This course covers: electrical meter testing of controls; motors and circuits; reading wiring diagrams; troubleshooting and repair various system problems. Prerequisites: HVAC111M/112M; Corequisite: HVAC121M.

MATH145M - Quantitative Reasoning This course is designed to expose the student to a wide range of general mathematics. Problem solving and critical thinking skills, along with the use of technology, will be emphasized and reinforced throughout the course as the student becomes actively involved solving applied problems. Topics to be covered include Number Theory and Systems, Functions and Modeling, Finance, Geometry and Measurement, Probability and Statistics, and selected subtopics related to the student’s major field of study. Prerequisite: Successful completion of: MATH090M with a “C” or better, satisfactory placement test scores, or permission of the Program Coordinator, the Department Chair, or a full time mathematics faculty member.
