The material presented includes electrical safety, an introduction to the National Electrical Code, basic DC electrical theory, magnetic theory, electrical formulas and calculations, test equipment, testing procedures, and electrical diagrams. The material presented in this course satisfies NH Electrical Apprentice training requirements. Laboratory work will provide reinforcement and application of theoretical concepts. Corequisite: Placement into MATH135M.

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.

ECE111M - Infant/Toddler Practicum: Nurturing Environments This course is an introductory practicum that includes observation, participation, and teaching in an infant/toddler setting (students choose to take ECE111M OR ECE 112M as their first practicum). The manner in which a “prepared environment” leads to learning through play and stimulating the development of children will be the focus of the course. Students will observe the effects of space, equipment, materials, and relationships upon play, learning, and discovery. Students will plan and implement developmentally appropriate lesson plans based on the NH Early Learning Standards. Incorporating and documenting routine care as an integral part of the curriculum will be emphasized. Students will attend a weekly three hour practicum placement at an assigned site as well as a weekly seminar class. Students must pass this course with a C or better to move on to the next practicum course, ECE 202M. Prerequisites: none

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.

WELD122M - MIG and TIG Welding Theory This course covers the theory behind the gas shielded arc welding processes, GTAW, GMAW and FCAW. Principles of operation, welding variables, filler materials and gas selection will be discussed in great detail. The modern welding processes which fall under the following categories will also be examined; Submerged Arc Welding, Plasma Arc Welding, Solid State Welding, Resistance Welding, Electroslag Welding, Stud Welding, the high energy beam processes, Thermal Spraying and other related welding processes. WELD112M.

MKTG125M - Principles of Marketing: A Global Perspective This course is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of the entire marketing process from a managerial point of view. Students have the opportunity to examine the marketing system and strategies for the marketing of consumer and business products.

In addition to identifying works by genre, students will consider these works as literature and focus on their role in both shaping and reflecting changing concepts of children and childhood. Students will learn to identify developmentally and age appropriate literature and develop activities to supplement and support readings that are age, developmentally, and culturally appropriate. Prerequisite: ENGL 109M or ENGL 110M. (Fulfills Enlgish or Humanities requirement.)

BUS224M - Human Resource Management This course is designed to provide a fundamental presentation of the dynamics of human resource management. Emphasis is placed on job design and development, employment training, benefits administration, compensation, and employee relations and the laws relating to human resource management. Course concepts will be solidified through the use of case studies and real-world applications. Prerequisite: BUS114M or BUS110M.
