MATH171M - Pre-Calculus This course focuses on the knowledge and skills necessary for study of Calculus. Students will study: logarithmic; exponential and trigonometric functions; complex numbers, conic sections and analytic trigonometry; determine and write linear equations in several forms; explain graph functions using symmetry tests; recognize and graph functions including quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential and logarithmic functions; use function transformation techniques; perform composition and arithmetic operations of functions; find and graph inverses of functions; use properties of logarithms. Prerequisite: Satisfactory placement test scores as defined by mathematics faculty, MATH155M with a grade of “C” or better, or permissions of the instructor. Offered every semester.

ETEC140M - Lineworker I Lab 1 This course provides an introduction to basic lineworker electrical concepts, practices, and procedures. The material presented includes electrical safety, an introduction to climbing, test equipment, testing procedures, and electrical diagrams. The material presented in this course satisfies NH Lineworker Apprentice training requirements. Laboratory work will provide reinforcement and application of theoretical concepts. Prerequisite: Placement into MATH 135M or permission of Department Chair.

SOCI110M - Introduction to Sociology This course is an introduction to fundamental theories and concepts of sociology. It examines various social institutions and probes multifaceted dimensions of social issues and events. It also explores collective behavior and social movements. (Fulfills Social Science requirement). Liberal Arts majors cannot take both SOCI109M and SOCI110M to fulfill degree requirements. Prerequisite: placement into ENGL110XM or ENGL110M.

AUTO2011M - Manual Transmissions and Drivetrains AUTO2011M is a comprehensive course including theory, repair and service procedures with an emphasis on diagnosis of manual transmissions and drivetrains. This course includes the theory of operation, service and repair, diagnosis and controls. This course provides an opportunity to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to diagnosis and service today's complex transmissions. Using the skills and knowledge learned, students will perform the same procedures, and diagnose transmission, drivetrain and related system concerns on today’s automobiles and light trucks just as a technician would in an automotive service department. AUTO2011M is a fall 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 with a minimum grade of C is required to register for this course. Prerequisites: Successful completion of AUTO1011M with a minimum grade of C.

ARTS110M - Welding for the Artist This course is an introduction to welding for the artist. The goal is for the student to develop structurally and aesthetically sound welding techniques in both arc and gas welding. These techniques will enable the art student to create both two and three dimensional artwork. Emphasis will also be placed upon safety, hands-on practice, equipment and process selection, joint design and filler metal characteristics. Students will also learn how to safely flamecut mild steel as well as bend metal using torch heat. Braze welding will also be discussed and practiced. Demonstrations in other welding processes more suitable to welding aluminum and stainless steel will be given. The art of Blacksmithing will also be introduced. (Fulfills Fine Arts requirement.)

CIS102M - A+ Prep/Hardware The A+ Preparation class is the starting point for a career in IT. The class covers maintenance of PCs, mobile devices, laptops, operating systems and printers and prepares students for CompTIA’s A+ hardware exam.

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.

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.

BIOL120M - Human Anatomy and Physiology II This course is a continuation of Human Anatomy & Physiology I. The course includes current in-depth information of the structure and function of the endocrine, digestive, respiratory, blood, cardiovascular, lymphatic, immune, urinary, and reproductive systems. Laboratory work augments lecture topics and includes exercises in microscopy, the study of fresh and preserved specimens, models, and physiological measurements on the human body. Pre-requisite of C or better in BIOL 110M or permission of the instructor.
