This course will explore the future lifetime random variable, probability and survival functions, force of mortality; complete and curtate expectation of life, and Makeham and Gompertz mortality laws. Other topics will include: Life tables, characteristics of population and insurance life tables, selection, and fractional age assumptions. Life insurance payments and annuity payments: Present value random variables; expected present values; higher moments; actuarial notation, annual, monthly and continuous cases, relationships between insurance and annuity functions. Premiums, expense loadings, present value of future loss random variables and distribution, net and gross cases, the equivalence principle and portfolio percentile principle will also be discussed. Three lecture hours plus a two hour lab per week. 03-09-2025-03-12-2025 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 01:30PM - 02:20PM, Memorial Hall, Room 308

The 2025 election was yet another reminder on the pivotal role elections and political parties play in our democratic life. Heading into January, the incumbent Liberal Party was on the verge of being wiped out by a Conservative Party - who led public opinion polling by double digits for close to two years - only for a leadership change and external events to completely upend predictions. The election also saw the weakening of the NDP and other Third Parties generally, as the electorate settled into two near equally divided camps, something not seen since the 1950s.

This course unpacks elections like 2025’s and how political parties in Canada organize to compete for power. The first part of the course focuses on the historical context on the rise of political parties in Canada and the three principal federalist parties that contest federal elections today: Liberal, Conservative, and New Democratic. The second part of the course takes a thematic approach, examining party leaders, how and why candidates are selected, societal representation in parties, political communications, electoral reform, voting behaviour and foreign interference. By the end of the course student will have a firm grounding in the key debates concerning modern Canadian elections and political parties.

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. 08-09-2025-01-12-2025 Graduate Studies Monday 03:30PM - 06:20PM, Robertson Library, Room 264

This course introduces students to the fundamental principles of radiography positioning. In order to produce high quality radiographs, students must understand the importance of several radiographic principles including: patient position, part position, central ray(CR) direction, source to image distance(SID), object to image distance(OID), image receptor(IR) selection, and collimation. Students will learn the basic steps of radiography and then apply these to radiography of the upper & lower limb, thoracic viscera and abdomen. In addition to positioning principles, students will practice critically evaluating radiographs. Restriction: Acceptance into the Radiography Program LECTURES/LABORATORIES: 3 hours.

This course introduces students to the basic theoretical and methodological tools necessary for critical and analytical thinking. Explored are major anthropological and sociological concepts, with reference to selected readings and current events. Emphasis is placed on identifying assumptions and using both theory and research in the analysis of socio-cultural behaviour. Three hours a week. 04-09-2025-04-12-2025 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 02:30PM - 03:45PM, Memorial Hall, Room 417

Intended for Nursing students and not intended for Psychology Majors or Minors, this course is an introduction to applied statistics as used by behavioural scientists in measurement, data, analysis, and design of experiments. This course stresses both an understanding of the rationale governing the selection of appropriate designs or techniques as well as practical experience in calculation. Topics include: scaling, measures of central tendency and variability, probability, statistical inference and hypothesis testing, means test (z and t), correlational techniques, chi-square and other non-parametric techniques, and analysis of variance. Students cannot receive credit for Psychology 2710 and either of Psychology 2790 or Psychology 2750. Three hours a week. 08-09-2025-01-12-2025 Lecture Monday 05:30PM - 08:15PM, Memorial Hall, Room 308
