the network level, this includes layered protocols, packet switching, LANs,<br />

WANs, routing, TCP/IP. Security issues: worms, viruses and spyware will be<br />

discussed.<br />

MATH 1350 Survey of Calculus 2AS 4 0 Presents a survey of basic concepts of calculus. For students who want an<br />

introduction to calculus, but do not need the depth of 2301 and 2301. Note:<br />

Students cannot earn credit for both 1350 and 2301.<br />

MATH 2301 Calculus I 2AS 4 0 First course in calculus and analytic geometry with applications in the<br />

sciences and engineering. Includes basic techniques of differentiation and<br />

integration with applications including rates of change, optimization problems,<br />

and curve sketching; includes exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric<br />

functions. No credit for both MATH 2301 and 1350.<br />

MATH 2302 Calculus II 2AS 4 0 Second course in calculus and analytic geometry with applications in the<br />

sciences and engineering. Includes techniques of integration, conic sections,<br />

PSC 1350 Energy in a Modern World 2AS 3 0 Introduces students to the science of energy production, use and the<br />

subsequent consequences. Introduces students to the Laws of<br />

Thermodynamics: conservation of energy; limits on efficiency. Various energy<br />

sources will be investigated and their use and impact discussed. The sources<br />

discussed may include: solar; fossil fuel; nuclear; wind; hydro, biomass. The<br />

teaching method is primarily through exposition of concepts, the analysis of<br />

problems and the use of in-class questions. Assessment of students will<br />

involve students demonstrating both their abilities in quantitative and<br />

qualitative analysis of problems.<br />
