PSYC210M - Human Growth and Development This course is the study of human growth and development with a specific emphasis on the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional dimensions from the prenatal period through later adulthood to death. An examination of major theorists is presented during the course. Major developmental milestones, diversity, family make-up and sociocultural dimensions complement the scope of the course. Prerequsites: PSYC110M and ENGL110XM or ENGL110M with a grade of “C” or better. Fulfills Social Science requirement.)

MATH135M - Numerical Algebra and Trigonometry This course provides students with the basic algebra and trigonometry skills to compute solutions in their curriculums. The algebra topics cover operations of real numbers, operations between polynomials, solutions of linear equations and inequalities involving numerical and variables terms, manipulations of formula, and word problems. The trigonometric topics cover trigonometric ratios as applied to right triangles and revolutions, and computation of measures in oblique triangles using the laws of sines and cosines.

GDES124M - Typography Introduces typefaces from an aesthetic and communicative perspective. The history and background of typography is explored, as well as modern typography, to provide an understanding of the language and form of typefaces and letterforms. Weekly assignments will involve solving design problems using type. Course Pre-requisites/Co-requisites: none

BIOL210M - General Microbiology This course introduces the principles of microbiology, focusing on the structure, function, classification, and genetics of microorganisms. Topics include microbial metabolism, growth, genetics, diversity, methods for microbial control, and interactions with hosts, including pathogenicity, epidemiology, and immune responses. Laboratory work focuses on aseptic techniques, microscopy, and identification using staining and biochemical tests.

ETEC240M - Lineworker II Lab 2 This course is a continuation of Lineworker I. It will include more in depth components of basic lineworker electrical concepts, practices, and procedures. The material presented expands on electrical safety, climbing, test equipment, testing procedures, and electrical diagrams. The material presented in this course partially satisfies NH Lineworker Apprentice training requirements. Laboratory work will provide reinforcement and application of theoretical concepts. Prerequisite: ETEC140M

AUTO2010M - Automotive Co-Op Work Experience IV The Automotive co-op work experience provides an opportunity for practical experience at an approved site. It is a required component of the degree program and students are required to work a minimum of 320 hours. Periodic supervisor evaluations based on performance and other criteria related to successful employment will be completed and reviewed by the co-op coordinator and site supervisor, and will be the basis for the final grade. AUTO2010M is a fall semester course. Tools identified on the student tool list are required at the co-op site. A minimum grade of C is required to continue on to AUTO2021M, AUTO2022M, and AUTO2023M.

TCHE104M - Foundations of Education This course examines the philosophical, historical, legal and social/cultural aspects of education in the United States. Students will explore current issues and trends in education, how schools and classrooms function organizationally and academically, and teaching as a profession. Discussions will focus on the goals of education, the role of state, local, and federal agencies, educational law and policy, and the roles and responsibilities of teachers. The Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (INTASC) Model of Standards for Beginning Teacher Licensing will be introduced. Students will be required to complete 20 hours of observation in a school setting. Prerequisites: none

ENGL113M - Introduction to Public Speaking This course prepares students to effectively communicate with audiences in academic, workplace and community settings by providing instruction and experience in formal speech preparation and delivery. Students will learn to analyze speaking situations and adapt messages for audience, purpose, and context. Topic selection, relevant sources of support, structure, organization, and delivery are emphasized. (Fulfills English or Humanities requirement.)

MATH204M - Calculus I This is the first course in the Calculus sequence. Topics include exploration of limits, continuity, and derivatives of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions. These basic concepts are further developed in applications of differentiation including particle motion, related rates and optimization. Integration is introduced through the study of definite and indefinite integrals and area. Prerequisite: Satisfactory placement test scores, or successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH171M, or permission of the instructor.
