AUTO1011M - Maintenance and Light Repair AUTO1011M is a comprehensive face-to-face course covering all aspects of general vehicle maintenance and light repair of the latest automobiles and light trucks. Topics include safety, customer service relations, repair documentation, service-department operations, safety inspection, pre-delivery inspection, in-depth preventative maintenance and inspection and common simple general repair. Using the various skills and knowledge learned, students will perform the same basic tasks on today’s automobiles just as an express lane maintenance technician would in a dealership. AUTO1011M 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 is required to receive credit for this course. A minimum grade of C is required to continue on to AUTO1021M, AUTO1022M, and AUTO1023M.
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.
ETEC250M - Advanced Controls I - Digital Fundamentals - PLC Basics This course covers the fundamentals of digital logic, digital circuit components, computer number systems, Boolean algebra, all basic logic gates, timer chips, Schmitt triggers, digital to analog converters, analog to digital converters, binary coded decimal encoders, basic microcomputer architecture, an introduction to programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and ladder logic in mechatronic systems. The basics of digital logic control, basic PLC modules and components, analog and digital I/O, programming concepts in ladder logic with reference to IEC61131 specification (an industry accepted programming standard for PLC’s), and PLC system components will be covered. Students will learn the role digital components and PLCs play within an electronic / mechatronic system or subsystem. They will also learn basic elements of PLC functions by implementing / reviewing small programs and testing these programs logically and / or on an actual system. Students will learn to identify malfunctioning PLCs and digital circuits, as well as to apply troubleshooting strategies to identify and localize problems found in digital systems and PLC’s. Prerequisites: ETEC210M or ETEC220M
PSPT102M - Electrical Systems Electrical systems is a comprehensive course covering all aspects of the theory and diagnosis of basic electrical systems of the latest power sports vehicles. Topics include: electrical safety, basic electricity theory and electrical systems, circuit diagrams, magnetism, induction, battery technology, semiconductors, specific vehicle electrical systems, electric circuit repair techniques, digital multi meter and other diagnostic equipment, and diagnostic techniques. Using the various skills and knowledge learned, students will perform basic electrical system inspection, diagnosis and repairs on today’s power sport vehicles. PSPT102M is a fall semester course. A minimum grade of C is required to continue on to PSPT103M.Prerequisites: PSPT101M with a minimum grade of C.
WELD121M - MIG and TIG Welding Laboratory This course instructs students in the safe, hands on utilization of the GTAW, GMAW & FCAW processes as they are used in industry. The GTAW process will be utilized to weld mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper alloys & titanium. The GMAW process will be utilized to weld mild steel, stainless steel & aluminum. Resistance welding, plastic welding and thermal spray equipment may also be used. Prerequisites: WELD111M, WELD112M.
HVAC112M - Fundamentals of Refrigeration I Lab Upon successful completion of this course the student will be able to solder, silver braze, flare, swag and use specialized refrigeration tools. Students will receive hands-on experience with equipment using manifold gauges, reading pressure/temperature charts, and learning service procedures. Students must be simultaneously enrolled in HVAC111M. Students must have successfully completed or be simultaneously enrolled in HVAC109M and HVAC110M. It is recommended that students have successfully completed or are simultaneously enrolled in HVAC101M.
ECE200M - ECE Curriculum: Math Science and Creative Thinking This course will focus on the STEAM concepts of creative thinking & problem solving, rather than a collection of facts to be memorized, as a basis for learning in math and science. The theoretical and developmental knowledge necessary to effectively teach the basic concepts of math and science to young children will be reviewed. Students will develop their skills in preparing developmentally appropriate activities that promote curiosity, creativity, problem solving and exploration. The interrelationships between math, science and other areas of the curriculum (particularly literacy and the arts) will be explored. Students will need access to young children to complete required assignments. Students are required to purchase a Taskstream electronic portfolio subscription. Prerequisites: ECE 100 & ECE 104
ENGL220M - College Composition II From ads to memes to media, persuasion is everywhere, and learning to recognize and evaluate it is an essential skill for the 21st century. College Composition II builds on the foundation of research, writing, and rhetoric established in College Composition I, but goes deeper into the study of rhetoric – the use of speech, writing, and visual images to persuade, motivate, and inform a target audience. Topics of study include the rhetorical situation, classical and modern persuasive appeals, and the ethics of argumentation. We’ll look at how rhetoric shapes our daily lives, and how we can use it to navigate power and produce social change. We’ll consider the impact of medium on messaging, and how to select and organize information effectively for various modes of expression. In addition to skill-building assignments, students will create three substantial persuasive projects using written, spoken, and visual rhetoric. Prerequisites: ENGL 110M/110XM with a grade of C or better. (Fulfills English requirement)
