In ACLC 4000: Advanced Workshop in Applied Communication, students draw upon previous courses and accumulated knowledge about their chosen fields of future employment to design a subject-specific set of communication products. The purpose of this course is to provide upper-level students with an opportunity to hone the practical application of their communication skills through a workshop process. A requirement of the course will be that students use a variety of forms of communication in the presentation of their ideas and information on their chosen subjects. 05-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 04:00PM - 05:15PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 115

Students will work in groups to formulate mathematical representations of real-world problems; solve the problems using a variety of advanced techniques from mathematics, statistics and computer science; implement and test their solution using the appropriate software; collect and analyze relevant data. Problems may come from science, business, or other areas depending on class interest. Students will give regular written and oral updates on their progress. A final report and presentation will include a review of relevant literature, analysis and solution of the assigned problems, and appropriate data visualizations. 04-01-2023-13-04-2023 Graduate Studies Days to be Announced, Times to be Announced, Room to be Announced

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. 05-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 08:30AM - 09:45AM, Robertson Library, Room 209

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. 06-01-2023-07-04-2023 Lecture Friday 09:30AM - 12:20PM, McDougall Hall, Room 318

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. 04-01-2023-12-04-2023 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 09:30AM - 10:20AM, Faculty Sustainable Design Eng, Room 301

This elective modular course builds on fundamental concepts of small animal cardiology covered in the core curriculum. Through case studies and interactive group discussions of nuanced or complex (but real-world) situations, students will participate in activities that increase their understanding of cardiac-noncardiac interactions such as cardiorenal comorbidities; congenital heart disease recognition and treatment; anesthesia of cardiovascular patients; cardiac emergencies; etc. Successful completion of the course will prepare students for management of small animal cardiology patients in clinical rotations and on day one of practice as a veterinarian. Five-week module with 3 hours of lecture per week. 06-02-2023-14-02-2023 Lecture Monday, Tuesday 10:30AM - 11:20AM, Atlantic Vet College, Room 201N (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 provides an introduction to African-American history. Beginning with the introduction of slavery into the American colonies, it examines the journey from slavery to freedom, the limits to freedom, and the persistent struggle for civil rights in American society.
