An introduction to the discipline of English and to the ways in which those in that discipline think about and analyze literary and everyday language practices. Various samples of literature will be examined in order to learn about the vocabulary used in literary studies. Instruction in essay writing will also be included.

This course will introduce post-secondary students to English studies and the historical contexts that shape literature. Generally, a specific historical period will be covered and the development of various genres will be examined. Instruction will include essay writing skills. Because the course content will vary among instructors, it is strongly recommended that students consult an academic advisor or the Department of Arts and Education for more specific descriptions regarding the course focus.

This course is designed to teach the system operations and the testing and adjusting procedures for the pilot operated hydraulic system, the load sensing, pressure compensated (LSPC) hydraulic system, the electro-hydraulic system, and the hydrostatic system. Students will identify the system components, state the component function and trace the oil flow through the component. This section will be covered on different types of machines.

The nature of macroeconomic systems are examined in relation to markets, national income analysis, aggregate demand and supply, the functions of money, commercial and central banking, monetary and fiscal policy, exchange rates, the balance of payments, and selected topics in analysis and policy. Current economy-wide issues will be discussed throughout the course.

This capstone course integrates learning derived from all courses in the program. Working in multi-disciplined groups, students will have the option of either compiling a comprehensive business plan for a new venture or undertaking a comprehensive business consulting project for an existing business looking to substantially change its footprint in the marketplace.

Theory and application of management information systems that support activities throughout an organization are examined.
