ECE: Advanced Practicum In this final three-credit practicum course, you will demonstrate competence in supporting child development through observation, assessment and implementation of teaching strategies as you work in and learn about and apply the course competencies in an actual early childhood setting. You will demonstrate a high level of skill in fostering relationships with children, families and early childhood professionals, and use skills learned in a lead teacher role to develop a career plan to transition from student to early childhood education professional. Prerequisite(s): Must be admitted to the Early Childhood Education program (10-307-1). Complete CHILDD-175 and CHILDD-177. CHILDD-204 Credits: 3 Supervise/Administrate ECE Programs This is the first of six courses designed to prepare participants as child care administrators. Like the other five courses, it is developed to meet the needs of those who are employed or would like to be employed as administrators in child care programs, Head Start, nursery schools, school-age programs, family child care, child welfare service agencies, public and private schools, and other early care and education ECE: Field Experience 4 This final three-credit, pre-professional field experience course focuses on demonstrating a comprehensive understanding of children from birth to age 8 and families. An emphasis is on practicing the lead teacher role to design, implement and evaluate a connected unit of learning experiences. Prerequisite(s): Must be admitted to the Early Childhood Education program. Complete CHILDD-190. CHNN – Community Health and Nutrition Navigator (Department 539) CHNN-202 Credits: 3 Healthcare Delivery This course examines the different types of healthcare institutions and the various roles of healthcare providers. The course also addresses types of diseases, diagnoses and types of treatment, along with the use of the medical record and continuity of care. CHNN-203 Credits: 3 Prevention and Community Health This course will address levels of prevention (primary, secondary and tertiary), assess individual and community needs, and discuss use of evidence-based practices and community resources to engage individuals and families in ongoing prevention and health assessment efforts. Prerequisite(s): Completion of or currently enrolled in HEALTH-112. programs. CHILDD-210 Credits: 3

Experiential Practice 1 This supervised practicum experience will focus on application of skills and knowledge in either the community health setting or the insurance setting. CHNN-207 Credits: 3 Experiential Practice 2 This supervised practicum experience provides application of health navigator acquired skills and knowledge in an agency setting of student’s choice (community health, insurance or healthcare agency as patient navigator). CIVIL – Civil Engineering (Department 607) CIVIL-101 Credits: 2 Civil Engineering Drawing The methods, techniques and equipment used in the civil engineering profession are studied. Drafting principles of geometric construction and orthographic projection are applied. Basic civil engineering drawings are reviewed, including subdivision mapping, plan and profiles, cross sections, and site and grading plans. CIVIL-102 Credits: 2 Introduction to AutoCAD This course introduces students to two dimensional computer drafting. Course content includes how to draw orthographic views and section views; how to draw entities such as lines, circles and text; how to add dimensions; how to edit drawings; and how to create and use blocks. Both A- and B-size templates are used. The American National Standards are emphasized in line weights, dimensions and appearance. CIVIL-105 Credits: 2 Computer Applications Computer applications such as word processing and spreadsheet usage are covered. Calculator methods and programming with the TI-86 scientific programmable calculator are included. CIVIL-106 Credits: 2 Intermediate AutoCAD This course is designed to expand the use of 2D AutoCAD. The course will cover advanced editing techniques, the use of multiple scale factors for drawings, attributed blocks, dynamic blocks, the use of xrefs and advanced dimensioning. System variables and basic script files are also studied. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-102. 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.

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 file formats and Point Groups are discussed and used. Surfaces are created utilizing breaklines, feature lines and point groups. Alignments, annotation methods and geo-referenced digital orthophotography are also covered. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-102. 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, deflection 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. Different 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. WisDOT Certification for PCCTec I/IA (Portland Cement Concrete Technician) is also available as part of this course. Prerequisite(s): Complete CIVIL-105. Completion of or currently enrolled in MATH-115. CIVIL-148 Credits: 3 Structural Detailing The students will learn how to draw detailing drawings using AutoCAD and Autodesk Revit Structure. Autodesk Revit Structure is
