The intent of this course is for students to gain a mastery in the selection and application of theories, concepts and frameworks that serve as the grounding of social work and social work teaching. This course will provide the opportunity for students to identify their own bias in the selection and application of theory and the factors that contribute to this process. This course serves to inform the teaching of all social work practice courses (micro through macro), providing students the opportunity to develop skills in deconstructing and reconstructing key theories and frameworks that are utilized in both practice and classroom settings. This course will provide opportunities for students to critically analyze and compare theories from a variety of frameworks including ethics, diversity and social justice. These critical thinking skills will be exercised through students selecting potential theories and/or frameworks for use in their banded dissertations.

This course provides the student with a set of skills to improve products and processes already in manufacturing as well as to develop products and processes in the development stages of a project. The definition of DOE promoted is " a tool to assist in the process of understanding the system". There will be discussion of how DOE fits into the overall product lifecycle and where it applies and does not apply to the area of testing. Tools covered include full and fractional factorials, central composite, Box-Behnken, Taguchi, Evolutionary Operation and the method of steepest ascent. Theoretical statistics understanding is assumed coming into the course. A standard, simple process will be presented which allows for improved communication and user confidence in using the tool set. The primary objective is to assist the student in implementing the skills learned as a part of the course. This is an applications - oriented course that includes case studies, team projects, student presentations and reports, guest lecturers and use of computational software. A quick statistical overview will be provided in the class as a refresher, but is not intended to cover the subjects in depth to students new to the subject. It would still be beneficial to review all of the topics prior to starting the class. The underlying statistics covered in ETLS 506 are a critical foundation for the material presented in the DOE class. The minimum background needs to include an understanding of: statistical symbology; normal distribution; ANOVA; and z, t, and F tests. General understanding of alpha and beta errors flow charts, Pareto charts, cause and effect diagrams and SPC is nice but not required. If you have equivalent background, the instructor will grant a written waiver.

Many engineering systems are inherently dynamic in nature. Characterizing and designing such systems requires mathematical modeling, simulation, and visualization using modern software such as MATLAB, SIMULINK, and SolidWorks, possibly with add-on modules. Lectures focus on the detailed applied mathematical modeling of a variety of systems from different energy domains with a bias towards mechanical systems such as mechanical translational, mechanical rotational, hydraulic, thermal, among others. The laboratory has 3 components to it: (1) software training(as necessary) , (2) developing dynamic models using MATLAB and SIMULINK, (3) creating CAD models of systems, and (4) integrating the dynamics models with the visualization to create computer animations of the resulting motions of the mechanical systems. Students also work on a team-based dynamic simulation and visualization of mechanical systems project.

This course asks students to think critically about the ways in which cinema engages the world as a form of entertainment, as art, as historical document, and as an instrument of social change. The course fulfills the Human Diversity requirement of the core curriculum at UST by addressing issues of race, ethnicity, gender, and geopolitical status. It scrutinizes the ways in which institutionalized and structural power and privilege are reflected in the subject matter, creation, and audience reception of film.
