Building on previous design courses, this is the first of a series of upper-year design courses which simulate the practice of a professional engineer. Professional and technical skills are developed through problem-, activity-, and project-based learning. Teams work with industry partners to develop innovative and sustainable solutions to meet their engineering challenges. Following a design-build-test approach and best practices in project management and sustainability, teams develop detailed project proposals, conceptual designs, and proofs of concepts within the ethical and safety considerations that are fundamental to the profession. Concepts are further developed into operational prototypes in ENGN 3720. Six lecture hours and six hours of design studio per week. 04-09-2025-04-12-2025 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 08:30AM - 11:20AM, Faculty Sustainable Design Eng, Room 202

The focus for this course is the evolution of various contemporary psychological concepts and practices, and provide students with an opportunity for critical reflection on the role historical, social, and cultural contexts have on these. It begins with a general introduction to the intersection of psychology, historiography, and philosophy of science. Students learn about the development of Psychology in North America and Europe as characterized by their various methods and theories. Discussions range across topics from all areas of Psychology, and may include: the history of statistics, mental testing, psychotherapy, gender, and consciousness. Students are encouraged to reflect upon the implications of these discussions for their areas of Honours research. Debates over how current research should proceed with regard to these topics are also addressed. Course enrollment is restricted to Psychology Honours students. Completion of PSY 3020 is recommended but not required. Note: This course does not meet any psychology area requirement, and does not meet the requirement for taking a 4000-level course. 04-09-2025-04-12-2025 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 02:30PM - 03:45PM, Duffy Science Ctr, Room 423

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. 04-09-2025-04-12-2025 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, Kelly Memorial Building 211.

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 explores the systematic processes that we use to collect quantitative measurements (e.g., amounts, proportions). Understanding what research methods are available and appropriate to answer a research question is a critical skill for conducting and consuming scientific work. Students will follow the sequence of designing a research project from conception to data gathering, and basic interpretation. This knowledge will allow you to better describe, assess, and understand the scientific results you encounter in your academics and everyday life.

Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, Hybrid format

Building upon their undergraduate advanced statistics coursework, students learn to interpret and evaluate research designs and quantitative data analyses most commonly encountered in the clinical literature and in program evaluation. Included are epidemiological methods, single case designs, analysis of correlational data, quasi-experimental and experimental designs, structural equation modelling, and meta-analysis. Emic and etic approaches to research are discussed, and attention is paid to issues related to cross-cultural research, equivalence, and data collection with cultural minorities and vulnerable populations. 04-09-2025-04-12-2025 Graduate Studies Thursday 01:00PM - 03:45PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 310

This course introduces students to the genre of science fiction. Looking at literature from a variety of historical periods, students explore how science fiction responds to the cultural contexts out of which it arises.
