This course is an advanced study of the physical, chemical, and biological properties of foods through food experimentation; objective and subjective testing of food attributes with emphasis on sensory analysis; and principles of research methodology as applied to foods. Current trends are discussed. A product development project is required. Three lecture hours, three-hour laboratory. 09-01-2024-25-04-2024 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 08:30AM - 09:45AM, Robertson Library, Room 210

This course provides students with an opportunity to explore specific therapeutic interventions used in the treatment of psychological problems experienced by children and adolescents. Empirically supported approaches to the treatment of childhood behavioural problems, anxiety, depression and other issues impacting children will be reviewed. Students also have an opportunity to learn about approaches that are often used with parents, guardians and others who help children. Specific therapeutic approaches primarily used with adolescents are also reviewed. Students have opportunities to gain experience in practicing some of these techniques through experiences such as class-based role plays and delivery of an empirically supported parenting program to groups of parents. Implications of cultural and individual diversities for interventions with children and adolescents are explored.

The Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations are presented as alternatives to the conventional treatment of Newton's laws and are applied to classical problems such as harmonic and anharmonic oscillators, the two-body central force problem, and rigid body motion. Three hours lecture per week. 08-01-2024-24-04-2024 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 11:30AM - 12:20PM, Faculty Sustainable Design Eng, Room 306

These courses may take at least two different forms: (1) Directed Readings in Psychology, (2) Directed Research in Psychology. Three hours a week Directed Readings is a course of supervised readings for individual students on advanced or specialized topics. Selected topics in the student's area of interest are submitted to and discussed with a faculty member. Reading will involve critical evaluation of the literature. Students will be evaluated on the basis of either oral or written performance. Directed Research provides an opportunity for students, with the help of a faculty supervisor, to design and carry out research in Psychology. Students will be expected to write up their study according to the accepted format for publication. This course is recommended for students who intend to do post-graduate work in Psychology. NOTE: Students should meet with a professor in the Psychology Department well in advance of registration to discuss the nature, design and content of the course. No one will be allowed to register for the course unless he/she has made arrangements with a professor in the Department. In accordance with present Senate regulations, no student shall take a total of more than 12 semester hours of Directed Studies courses in any one Department. (See Academic Regulation #9 for regulations governing Directed Studies). 08-01-2024-09-04-2024 Seminar Days to be Announced, Times to be Announced, Room to be Announced

This elective modular course builds on fundamental concepts of small animal surgery covered in the core curriculum. The course will address the pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of surgical diseases affecting dogs and cats. Emphasis is placed on the mechanisms and techniques of more complex conditions as well as those that require specialty surgical care. Five-week module with 3 hours of lecture per week. 05-02-2024-14-02-2024 Lecture Monday, Tuesday, Friday 08:30AM - 09:20AM, Atlantic Vet College, Room 205N (more)...

This course covers linear and logistic models, i.e. multiple linear and logistic regression and analysis of variance procedures for analysis of continuous and dichotomous outcomes with respect to multiple factors or explanatory variables. In addition, the course gives an introduction to experimental design and to analysis of data from complex experimental designs with multiple levels of variation or repeated measurements. The course is partially taught in conjunction with VHM 8120. HOURS OF CREDIT: 2 or 3 LECTURES/SEMINARS: 2 hours LABORATORIES: 3 hours.

This course introduces a variety of instrumentation techniques, and examines the theory, advantages and limitations associated with each. Topics include UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, atomic absorption and emission spectroscopy, operational components of spectrophotometers; electro- analytical methods, potentiometric methods, ion-specific electrodes, voltammetry, liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, spreadsheet methods and statistical software. Three lecture hours and four laboratory hours a week. 09-01-2024-25-04-2024 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 05:30PM - 06:45PM, Irving Chemistry Ctr, Room 104

This course explores various aspects of animal behaviour, primarily from an evolutionary perspective. Topics covered include the development and expression of behaviour, animal communication, predator-prey interactions, reproductive and parental strategies of males and females, and the application of an evolutionary approach to the study of human behaviour. Laboratories focus on how behavioural data are collected and interpreted. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory a week. 08-01-2024-24-04-2024 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 08:30AM - 09:20AM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 320
