Groups; Alignments, annotation methods and geo-referenced digital orthophotography also are covered. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-102. CIVIL-111 Credits: 2 Advanced Civil 3D Autodesk Civil 3D is a civil engineering design software used for civil design, drafting and documentation, collaboration and Building Information Modeling (BIM) work fl ows. This course covers the advanced design functions and techniques of Civil 3D including alignments, surface grading and analysis, pipe networks and survey databases. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-110. CIVIL-135 Credits: 3 Public Works Engineering and Estimating The basic principles of planning, design, construction and operation of public works facilities, such as water, wastewater, solid waste and transportation systems, are discussed. Estimating techniques for civil engineering projects are covered. CIVIL-141 Credits: 4 Statics and Strength of Materials The principles of static equilibrium are applied to free bodies. Students study the behavior of simple structures under load. The properties of the cross section are determined and used in the analysis of stress, de fl ection and strain. Compression, tension, shear and bending stresses are analyzed. Prerequisite(s): Complete MATH- 115 or MATH-202. CIVIL-142 Credits: 3 Structures General structural behavior with respect to live and dead loading, wind loading, earthquake loading and transfer of loads throughout a structure by diaphragms and shear walls are studied. The principles of structural steel, reinforced concrete and timber structures are studied, including the codes of practice for each. Di ff erent types of foundations are presented and basic foundation design principles are studied. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-141 and MATH-115 or MATH-202. CIVIL-147 Credits: 3 Soils and Materials Testing The purpose of this course is to help students gain an understanding of the engineering properties of construction materials and soils. Lab tests are performed on soil, aggregates, concrete and steel. The results of these tests are then used to determine the strengths and weaknesses of each material related to their use in civil engineering. Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) Certi fi cation for PCCTec I/IA (Portland Cement Concrete Technician) also is available as part of this course. Prerequisite(s): Completion of or currently enrolled in MATH-115.

construction and orthographic projection are applied. Basic civil engineering drawings are reviewed including subdivision mapping, plan and pro fi les, cross sections, and site and grading plans.

System variables and basic script fi les also are studied. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-102. CIVIL-107 Credits: 2 Introduction to MicroStation The basic fundamentals of using MicroStation software are explored. Drawing, placing, manipulating and modifying elements are covered. Additional topics include drafting aid features, cells, reference fi les, advanced 2D techniques, dimensioning, annotating and plotting. CIVIL-108 Credits: 1 Construction Computer Applications This computer applications course is designed to provide students with word processing, spreadsheet and internet skills. Additionally, the course gives students an opportunity to utilize these skills in a project and presentation. Prerequisite(s): Completion of or currently enrolled in CABMIL-303. CIVIL-110 Credits: 2 Introduction to Civil 3D Civil 3D is an engineering software application used by civil engineers and other professionals to plan, design and manage civil engineering projects. Students will become familiar with the Civil 3D user interface and enhanced capabilities with respect to AutoCAD. Field collected survey points, Point fi le formats and Point Groups are discussed and used; Surfaces are created utilizing breaklines, feature lines and Point

Credits: 3

Introduction to Family Child Care This introductory course is designed for family child care providers, or individuals seeking to become family child care providers. In this course, providers will ful fi ll the requirements for both Department of Children and Families entry-level courses, Fundamentals of Family Child Care and Introduction to the Child Care Profession. Through this course, providers will be introduced to important topics such as quality standards in family child care, health and wellness, child development, curriculum planning, guiding children’s behavior, program wellness, and provider health and wellness. This course must be taken fi rst in the Family Child Care Credential series and is aligned with the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards and the National Association for Family Child Care Quality Standards. CHILDD-302 Credits: 3 Family Child Care: Responsive Programming This second course of the Family Child Care Credential series focuses on creating responsive, family child care programming with an emphasis on building relationships and curriculum. Through this course, providers will be introduced to important topics such as quality standards for relationships, intentional relationships, diversity and anti-bias perspectives, family partnerships, mixed age curriculum, learning environment indoor, and learning environment outdoor. This course is aligned with the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards and the National Association for Family Child Care Quality Standards. CHILDD-303 Credits: 3 FCC: Financial Management and Planning This third course of the Family Child Care Credential series focuses on managing the fi nances of a family child care with an emphasis on principles and practices for budget planning, budget preparation and fi scal management. Through this course, providers will be introduced to important topics such as quality standards for fi nancial management and planning, business management, fi nancial planning, record keeping, business budgets, marketing, and fi nancial management tools and systems. This course is aligned with the National Association for Family Child Care Quality Standards. Prerequisite(s): Complete CHILDD-133, CHILDD-134 and CHILDD-135.
