This course engages students in implementing the engineering design process and using product management and development tools. Student design teams work closely with industry partners to develop innovative and sustainable solutions to meet global challenges. Additionally, this course emphasizes the role of analysis, simulation and modeling in engineering design. Students further develop their professional and technical skills through activity-, project- and problem-based learning. Through the application of appropriate frameworks to their projects, students gain an appreciation for best practices and ethical behavior as well as an awareness of the role of engineers in society, in particular the concepts of engineering leadership and sustainable design. Six lecture hours and six design studio hours per week. 07-09-2023-21-12-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 11:30AM - 02:20PM, Faculty Sustainable Design Eng, Room 202

This course introduces students to the basic concepts and ideas in Humanistic and Existential psychologies, and involves applying and integrating psychological theory to personal experience. Students learn about theorists such as Jung, Rogers, Maslow, May, and Frankl, and the ways in which meaning, purpose, choice, and consciousness are fundamental to existence. The development of humanistic psychology from phenomenological and existential approaches is considered, and the differences from experimental psychologies are discussed. As ways of comprehending our lives, themes of personal ('self ') and interpersonal ('self-in-relation') experience will be explored within a larger sociocultural context. Topics may include: being/becoming, intentionality, authenticity, values, growth, agency, identity, anxiety, and transcendent experience. Since this course focuses on finding ways for students to apply psychological insights to their every day lives, experiential learning, personal reflection and class discussion will be emphasized. Active class participation is therefore essential for this course, and may involve journals, small group work, written responses to the readings, or other opportunities for personal reflection, both inside and outside of class.

English 2340 is an intensive practical course in public speaking that helps students from across the disciplines become confident oral communicators. By learning and applying the techniques that the very best speakers use, students will gain the knowledge and experience they need to overcome performance obstacles and ultimately to find their own voices. The overall aim of the course is to move participants towards an extemporaneous speaking style that they can carry with them through their studies and into their professional lives. 07-09-2023-21-12-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 02:30PM - 03:45PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 113

In this course, students explore the characteristics of quantitative methodology and examine their usefulness in conducting educational research. The methods discussed include causal-comparative, correlational, and experimental. Students learn how to state hypotheses, define and measure variables, select samples, collect and analyze data, and prepare research reports. Students design a research study on a topic related to learning and instruction. 06-09-2023-06-12-2023 Lecture Wednesday 01:00PM - 03:50PM, Robertson Library, Room 264
