Credits:
1.00
An overview of programs offered by the College of
Engineering and Physical Sciences with an emphasis on
skills needed to be successful academically, career
opportunities and professional development. Required course
of all undeclared majors in CEPS. Cr/F.
TECH 444 - Symmetry in Nature, The Arts, and Daily Life
Credits:
4.00
The elements of symmetry and its occurrence and role in
nature (bilateral symmetry in butterflies and animals;
cylindrical symmetry in trees and volcanoes; helical
symmetry in shells, proteins, and DNA; the role of symmetry
in design of medicines); its role in art and design
(textiles, advertising); and in our lives (design of
houses, chairs, scissors). The course is non-mathematical
and is open to students having little background in
science. Writing intensive.
TECH 564 - Fundamentals of CAD
Credits:
3.00
Fundamentals of CAD and computer-based graphics, including
using CAD as a design tool to create engineering drawings.
AutoCAD and Softdesk Civil software used to cover the
following topics: drawing file storage and retrieval,
display functions, basic drawing and editing commands,
symbol libraries, plotting drawings on paper, and using
parametric design features in the CAD system. Basic DOS
familiarity is assumed. Prereq: civil engineering majors
only. Special fee. Lab.
TECH 583 - Technology: Cultural Aspects
Credits:

Study of the requirements, limitations, benefits, and
hazards that are constraints on the development of
technological systems. Prereq: prior courses in physics or
chemistry at high school level; sophomore or higher
standing at UNH; not open to CHE, CIE, EE, or ME majors;
permission.

Students work as members of interdisciplinary project
teams on contemporary ocean-related problems under the
guidance of a faculty adviser. Student team defines
problem, prepares a budget, conducts literature surveys,
engages in dialogue with experts in the community, deals
with vendors, designs, and builds a working engineering
model, gathers analyzes scientific data or conducts a
comprehensive study, makes interim reports, and defends the
results before a jury of experts. Prereq: normally senior
standing and permission of the program director. A yearlong
effort: 2 credits each semester, 4 credits total, an IA
(continuous course) grade given at the end of the first
semester. Writing intensive.
