The National Electrical Code will be an integral part of this course. The material presented in this course satisfies NH Electrical Apprentice training requirements. Laboratory work will reinforce and promote the application of theoretical concepts. Prerequisites: ETEC120M and MATH135M, or permission of Program Coordinator. Corequisite: MATH151M
CHEM090M - Foundations of Chemistry This high school level course in chemistry examines the structure of matter and the nature of chemical reactions. Lab activities will be included to help reinforce theory classes. The course helps to prepare students for college-level sciences. These credits are institutional only and do not count towards graduation.
BIOL103M - Fundamentals of Health and Wellness This course will familiarize students with the importance of various elements relevant to their personal health. Topics will provide insight on aspects related to overall health and wellness including physical activity, nutrition, and stress management. Additionally, throughout the course, students will analyze many dimensions of personal health and discover how they relate to their career choice and have an effect on their job performance. Finally, students will be given the tools, knowledge and hands-on experience required to feel confident in leading a healthy and active lifestyle.
PSYC210M - Human Growth and Development This course is the study of human growth and development with a specific emphasis on the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional dimensions from the prenatal period through later adulthood to death. An examination of major theorists is presented during the course. Major developmental milestones, diversity, family make-up and sociocultural dimensions complement the scope of the course. Prerequsites: PSYC110M and ENGL110XM or ENGL110M with a grade of “C” or better. Fulfills Social Science requirement.)
HVAC121M - Fundamentals of Refrigeration II Theory A continuation of Fundamentals of Refrigeration I. This course covers: electrical circuits, controls and motors necessary for operation of various residential and small commercial units; components necessary for optimum operation and efficiency; basic mechanical and electrical troubleshooting. Students must be simultaneously enrolled in HVAC122M. Prerequisite: HVAC111M, HVAC112M.
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
