Prerequisites: ETEC120M AND math135m or permission of the Program Coordinator.

ECE100M - Early Childhood Growth and Development This course provides an in-depth study of typical growth and development from conception through age 8 with an emphasis on the specific needs and characteristics of each developmental level as described in developmental milestones charts and the NH Early Learning Standards. The experiences in this course will focus attention on how observation, documentation, and assessment can be used to inform understandings about children and the practice of teaching. Focused instruction is given on learning how to observe, document, and analyze children’s thinking and developmental processes. Insights gleaned from this learning will be enhanced by theories and research on child development. Prominent theories of child psychology, including but not limited to Piaget, Erikson, Maslow and Bronfenbrenner, will be introduced. At least 15 hours of observation of children in childcare settings is required. Prerequisites: none

CSAI130M - Natural Language Programming This intermediate-level course is designed for students who are pursuing careers that require machine learning knowledge. Students will learn how to describe the terms in the natural language processing (NLP) ecosystem; identify how to use NLP in business; and indicate the range of problems, tasks, and solutions with NLP.

ETEC220M - Commercial and Low Voltage Building Systems This course presents information on the theory of operation, applications, and installation practices for low voltage and communications systems typically installed in buildings. These include audio, video, security, telephone, fire alarm, computer networking, and wireless systems. The National Electrical Code will be referenced throughout this course as it applies to the subject matter. 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 MATH151M or MATH155M, or permission of Program Coordinator

AUTO2022M - Automatic Transmissions and Transaxles AUTO2022 is a comprehensive course including theory, service and overhaul procedures with an emphasis on diagnosis of automatic transmission, transaxles and electronic controls. This course includes operating principles of hydraulics, mechanical, and electronic controls. This course provides an opportunity to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to diagnosis and service today's complex transmissions and control systems. Using the skills and knowledge learned, students will perform the same procedures, and diagnose automatic transmission and related system concerns on today’s automobiles and light trucks just as a technician would in an automotive service department. AUTO2022M is a spring 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. Prerequisites: Successful completion of AUTO1011M, AUTO1012M, and AUTO1022Mwith a minimum grade of C.

CIS105M - Introduction to Computer Science Introduction to Computer Science uses broad coverage and clear exposition to present a complete picture of the dynamic computer science field. Accessible to students from all backgrounds, and encourages the development of a practical, realistic understanding of the field. An overview of each of the important areas of Computer Science provides students with a general level of proficiency for future courses.

HVAC135M - Fundamentals of Gas Heating and Piping Installation Lab An introduction to gas piping distribution systems which includes an in-depth hands-on course covering: the design, installation, component selection, methods of joining, pressure and leak testing, and the ability to safely work on gas distribution systems. The student designs and installs gas piping distribution systems following relevant codes. Troubleshooting, and steady-state efficiency testing of gas utilization equipment is also introduced. Corequisite: HVAC101M, HVAC134M.

HVAC230M - Gas Equipment Installation and Service Theory An in depth study of placing propane and natural gas utilization equipment into service while controlling gas/air mixtures for proper combustion. Gas equipment installations including; clearance to combustibles, combustion, dilution, and ventilation air requirements to determine if a space is confined or unconfined. Gas equipment venting including; venting categories, vent materials, vent sizing and clearances. Troubleshooting electrical circuits and control devices while measuring electrical quantities using an electrical meter. Identifying operating characteristics and components of common sensing devices will be covered. Gas pressure measurements including supply and appliance burner pressure detection will be discussed. Ignition safety systems including the 100 percent pilot safety shut-off and other electronic safety shut off devices will be studied. Flue gas analysis and carbon monoxide detection will be included. National Fuel Gas Code as it relates to the above topics is also emphasized. Prerequisite or corequisite: HVAC134M, HVAC135M.

ETEC265M - Troubleshooting Electrical and Electronic Systems This course covers the aspects of troubleshooting electrical and electronic systems. Subject matter includes electrical and electronic system applications, step-by-step troubleshooting procedures, and reinforcement of the concepts presented. This course is not intended for State of NH electrician’s apprenticeship training. However, this course may be taken as a continuing education course for renewal of State of NH licensure. This is a theory course only with no lab component. Prerequisites: ETEC110M or permission of ETEC Program Coordinator or Chair.
