In this course students will be exposed to and examine the concepts underlying sustainable design engineering as they pertain to engineering practice and in particular engineering research and the development of new technologies. Sustainable design engineering can be defined as an engineering design process which considers not only the key performance indicators and functional characteristics of the system being developed but also the environmental, social and economic context and impacts of the system. Recent advances in sustainability research have focused on the complex interactions between these areas, evolving from "green engineering" to a full consideration of sustainability. In order to develop sustainable solutions, engineers and researchers must be able to critically evaluate their work in this context. To this end, students will examine case studies and relevant readings on such topics as sustainability indicators, techno-economic and life cycle assessment, stakeholder engagement, real time technology assessment, engineering justice, and design for sustainability. While approaches for addressing the specific areas of environmental, social and economic sustainability will be covered, the focus of the course will be on the interactions between these areas. A key outcome of this course will be a paper critically examining the student's research topic from the perspective of sustainable design engineering. Cross-level listed with SDE 8030. Objectives, assessment and outcomes will be commensurate with the undergraduate level. Note: Permission of instructor required. 04-09-2024-23-12-2024 Lecture Days to be Announced, Times to be Announced, Room to be Announced

This course examines themes of crime, criminality, and detection in English literature.

This course helps students identify and evaluate various types of arguments couched in ordinary language. Different types of errors of reasoning are critically evaluated, such as argument from authority, begging the question, faulty causal correlation, appeal to emotions, inadequate sample, and deceptive use of statistics. The course aids the student in recognizing occurrences of these fallacies, and the conditions for logical error and weak argumentation in general. Emphasis is placed on the identification of weak arguments and the construction of strong arguments. Examples for critique and counter argument are derived mainly from the popular media. Lectures, discussion and group presentation. Three hours a week. 05-09-2024-05-12-2024 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 10:00AM - 11:15AM, Robertson Library, Room 235

This course is a rotation in the laboratories of Diagnostic Services. Students gain practical experience in clinical diagnostics with respect to the application of techniques and the interpretation of results in the areas of pathology, clinical pathology, virology, bacteriology and parasitology. Three weeks in duration. Restriction: Student must have fourth year standing in the DVM program (Enrolment is limited). 12-08-2024-29-12-2024
