Hands-on microcontroller interfacing, driver programs, input sensors, output electrical, and electromechanical devices.

This course covers wireless communications systems, industrial communication protocols, and industrial control systems, including programmable logic controllers. Analog and digital systems will be explored. The course also provides an introduction to antennas, amplifiers, and microwave signals.

Course covers digital interfaces and hardware programming. Topics include digital to analog interfacing using integrated circuits, programmable logic devices, field programmable gate arrays (FPGA), hardware description languages (e.g. VHDL and Verilog), and computer memory. Course requires hands-on project construction and troubleshooting. Industry standard testing methods, equipment, and protocols are used throughout the course.

Introduction to intermediate analog electronic circuits, including field effect transistor basics, various analog amplifiers, operational amplifiers and their use. Hands-on electronic projects include building summing and difference amplifiers, audio amplifiers, and AM/FM radios.

This course covers Boolean logic concepts, flip-flops, memory, counters, clocks, display decoders, and timers. Analysis of digital logic principles is practiced by building and testing functional and practical projects. There will be intense hands-on troubleshooting using logic analyzers, signal generators and digital multimeters. Standard industry testing methods, equipment, and protocols are used throughout the course.

This course covers diode characteristics, power supplies, bipolar transistors, simple one-stage amplifiers, constant current sources, and transformers. The students will learn the intermediate use of the oscilloscope and multi-meter for both calibration and troubleshooting. Hands-on electronic projects include building their own power supply, a current regulator, and various amplifier circuits.

Study the construction and analysis of basic electronic circuits, including capacitors and inductors. Use of the multi-meter to measure DC and AC voltages and currents in resistive series/parallel circuits and the oscilloscope for AC, pulsed waveforms, phase, and time delay measurements. Computer simulation software (Multisim) to analyze circuits.

Application of statistical methods and interpretation of statistical findings to facilitate decision-making in Economics, Business, Political Science and other Social Sciences. Data sources, types and interpretation; descriptive statistics; probability theory; discrete and continuous probability distributions; sampling distributions; confidence intervals; hypothesis tests; nonparametric statistics; simple linear regression analysis; computer-based statistical analysis.

For individuals interested in vocational rehabilitation process to secure competitive non-supported employment without assistance of a job developer or coach. Emphasis is on defining career options based on functional abilities and limitations. Topics include work-life balance, hiring discrimination laws, benefits planning and negotiation of workplace accommodations. Course utilizes assessment tools and research of resources to help explore local labor market trends and develop a career path.

Second semester of intermediate training level under supervised professional in a medical center with performance of ultrasound procedures and other noninvasive cardiac procedures. Emphasis on performing echocardiograms on inpatients in critical care units and completing reports in patient archiving systems. Placement is determined by program officials. One unit of credit is earned for 54 hours of unpaid or paid work.
