This elective modular course builds on fundamentals of interpersonal communications delivered in the core curriculum, including VCA 3140, Professional Foundations IV, in which students will be engaged concurrently. Distinguishing features of this course include use of existing written communications as a basis for exploring why certain client communications are more effective than others; analysis of in-person testimonials involving veterinarians and clients; minimal reliance on emulation or modeling and greater emphasis on errors to avoid; and a fundamentally student-driven approach. Successful completion of the course will contribute to an understanding of how good communications can improve the delivery of veterinary care. Five-week module with 3 hours of lecture per week. 03-01-2023-03-02-2023

The basic topics covered in this course may include fermentation, engineering of reactor, natural products purification and their applications in biotechnology sector. The students will learn basic concepts of chemical and biochemical techniques required for the development and purification of materials in biotechnological, biochemical and pharmaceutical industries. The design of fermenters and biological reactors and their modification to improve the industrial applications will be discussed. The design of reactors in context of mass and energy balances will be evaluated and downstream unit processes involved in product recovery will be presented. Three hours of lecture and three hours of lab per week. 05-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 508

The UPEI Case Competition class is an intensive case-based, experiential learning course that trains students to compete in national and international case competitions. Students work in teams and work with a coach to engage in self-motivated, self-directed studies. They build upon their business skills and knowledge by sourcing and learning current, relevant business theory and implementing it into their case solutions. Students focus on constructing logical, evidence-based, clear solutions for business cases while practicing public speaking, presenting and business writing. Cases cover many areas of business: strategy, marketing, ethics, accounting, human resource management, and finance, across many industries and topics. The course includes weekly mock case competitions as well as regional, national, and international case competitions. Three hours a week NOTE: Can substitute for Business 4950 Restriction: Student must have Permission of the instructor. 04-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Days to be Announced, Times to be Announced, Room to be Announced

This course provides an introduction to calculus for students in the managerial, social and life sciences. The main emphasis of the course is the development of techniques of differentiation and integration of algebraic, exponential and logarithmic functions. Applications of derivatives and integrals are also discussed. NOTE: Credit will not be given jointly for this course and Math 1910 PREREQUISITE: Grade XII academic Mathematics. 05-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, Irving Chemistry Ctr, Room 104

This course surveys topics of historical importance in Canadian history up to and including the attainment of Confederation. The emphasis is on the interaction between political events and change in the economy and society. Tutorials examine various historical interpretations of the Canadian experience.

This course develops critical thinking around research problems in Biotechnology through a series of case studies. Students will examine and solve research problems in biotechnology. Material for the case studies will be drawn from biotechnology industries generically and from local industries, increasing in complexity as the semester progresses. Students will build competencies in Biotechnology methods and techniques, develop the ability to see alternative approaches, and develop problem solving and critical thinking skills. 05-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 08:30AM - 09:45AM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 320

This course provides students with an opportunity to learn about the foundational theory and practices in psychological assessment of children and adolescents, grounded in application of psychometric theory. Students gain familiarity with a range of psychological assessment devices used with children and adolescents including measures of intelligence, academic achievement and mental health symptoms. Students receive hands-on instruction in the administration, scoring and interpretation of major objective and projective psychological tests used with children and adolescents and develop skills in explaining the tests results and their implications to parents and, at a developmentally appropriate level, children and adolescents. Emphasis is placed on formulating problems experienced by children and adolescents, and looking at them in relation to a developmental psychopathology framework (e.g., individual, parent, parenting/family, and social risk and protective factors). Moreover, the importance of considering individual and cultural diversities when assessing children and adolescents is examined. Ethical issues that may arise when working with children and adolescents in an assessment context are explored. 05-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Thursday 09:30AM - 12:20PM, Memorial Hall, Room 104
