ANTH101M - Introduction to Anthropology This course introduces students primarily to cultural anthropology, its key concepts, terminology, theories, and research. Some aspects of physical anthropology and linguistics will also be covered. Topics covered will include culture, ethnocentrism, cultural aspects of language and communication, economic patterns, kinship, sex and marriage, socialization, social control, political organization, class and caste, ethnicity, gender, religion, beliefs, and cultural change. Students will be required to engage in fieldwork experience. (Fulfills Social Science requirement)Effective Fall 2023: this is a CCSNH Access course and will display on transcripts, count as credits attempted, and count towards the cumulative grade point average for all seven colleges: Great Bay, Lakes Region, Manchester, Nashua, NHTI, River Valley, and White Mountains. Students cannot receive credit for more than one of the CCSNH Access courses or equivalents and the most recent course on the college transcript will be used in the cumulative grade point average (CGPA) calculation. For graduation residency purposes, only Access courses owned by the campus where the student is matriculated will be used to meet the requirements.

ENGL101M - College Composition

ADMT220M - Material Science This course will introduce the student to the principles of Material Science as the subject relates to the selection and testing of Ferrous and non-ferrous metals, thermosetting and thermoplastic polymers and ceramics. Emphasis will also be placed upon physical and mechanical properties of metals as well as heat treatment. Prerequisite: None

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.
