HFIT105M - Essentials of Exercise Science

NURS212M - Nursing IV: Practicum The student develops increased competence and independence to provide and manage care for patients and families with common multi-system health problems across the life span. The scope of the course includes ethical decision-making, role performance and the care of patients with multi-system health problems of metabolism/immunity/hematopoiesis; cognition/sensation/perception; and cardio-respiratory. Additional course content includes leadership skills, health care policy and legislative advocacy. A research paper is required concerning current health care/nursing trends. Laboratory learning focuses on student case presentations involving current, multi-system health problems and ethical decision-making. Clinical learning experiences are provided for the student in advanced medical-surgical and community health settings.

ETEC110M - Electrical Fundamentals I This course provides an introduction to basic electrical concepts, practices, and procedures. 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.

BUS114M - Business Management This course introduces the principles and techniques underlying the successful organization and management of business activities. The course combines the traditional analysis of management principles with the behavioral approach using case studies. Areas of study include the management functions of planning, organization, leadership, staffing control, and the decision-making process.

NURS111M - Nursing I: CMC-E100 Students begin learning the roles of the Associate Degree Nurse as a provider and manager of care and member of the discipline of nursing. Students develop beginning intellectual, interpersonal and psychomotor competencies to assess well patients and patients with common actual or possible alterations in health. The roles of the nurse, communication theory, life span development, ethical-legal standards, and nursing process are basic concepts to the practice of nursing for the Associate Degree Nurse. Students are introduced to the concept that the person is a system in dynamic interaction with the internal and external environments. The eleven Functional Health Patterns organize the study of concepts common to a basic knowledge of the patient's state of wellness and possible or actual health problems. The Learning laboratory provides opportunities to practice nursing skills in simulated activities. Clinical learning provides experiences to practice nursing by caring for well patients or patients with common basic health problems in structured health settings – long term/sub-acute care.

PSYC215M - Abnormal Psychology This course focuses on defining and understanding what constitutes abnormal behavior. Theoretical perspectives such as biological, psychosocial, and socio-cultural approaches will be examined and applied through comparative analysis. Students will be able to identify and interpret behavior and diagnostic criteria associated with mental illness. Synthesis of disorders, assessment, and diagnosis will be fostered in the classroom and applied to diverse cultures, communities, and societies. (Fulfills Social Science requirement.) Prerequisites: PSYC110 and ENGL110 with a “C” or better

ENGL200AM - Topics in Literature: American Horror Horror is one of America’s oldest and most popular genres in literature, cinema, visual arts, and even music (think of Rob Zombie, Alice Cooper, and many others). Part of the appeal is escapism: It’s safer to scare oneself over things that go bump in the night than to ponder oftenterrifying real-life problems. Horror also provides a lens through which to view essential life themes, such as man’s role in the world, an individual’s struggle to assert themselves in a hostile society, and the inner conflicts of the mind and soul. In this course, the student will address such themes through short stories by Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edgar Allan Poe, Flannery O’Connor, Shirley Jackson, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and yes, Stephen King. Rather than horror for the sake of horror, the themes presented in the readings will provide the basis for class discussions and short, critical essays. Prerequisite: ENGL110M or ENGL110XM. (Fulfills English or Humanities requirement.)

HVAC109M - Related Electricity I Theory Theory work on the principles of DC and AC electricity that are fundamental to the HVAC area. These include: Ohm’s law, series circuits, parallel circuits, meters, wire gauges, magnetism, AC generation, AC calculations, and basic electric motor principles. Students must be simultaneously enrolled in HVAC110M. It is recommended that students have successfully completed or are simultaneously enrolled in HVAC101M.

BUS200M - Team Building This course will introduce and expand upon the basic principles and concepts of team building and self-directed work teams as they pertain to the workplace environment. Through the use of lecture, interactive discussion, workshop-type group exercises, videos, and guest speakers the key concepts of how teamwork can influence and benefit the workplace will be explored.
