This course is based on fundamental concepts and principles in physical chemistry. It is designed as a foundation course that will provide a basis for the application of the concepts covered in chemistry courses in year 2 of the program. In this course, emphasis is placed on the manipulation of numerical and other data, as well as students’ problem-solving ability.
This is a lecture discussion course in which there is further development of the knowledge and understanding of some of the foundational concepts of the operation of the atmosphere. The course will focus on the major elements of the atmosphere identified as producing weather and climate, their major features, measurement, distribution, interactions and outcomes as experienced in day-to-day and average conditions. The representation of these elements and conditions in diagrams and maps will also be undertaken.
This is a lecture discussion course in which there is further development of the knowledge and understanding of concepts of that section of the Cycle of Erosion dealing with fluvial processes and forms. These include: the development of landforms through the operation of external agents, dominantly water; materials associated with and types and results of mass movement, main elements of the hydrological cycle and their operation and results, ground water and springs, river processes and channel and valley forms.
This is a lecture discussion course in which there is further development of the knowledge and understanding of some of the foundational concepts of Geography. The areas to be considered are: the Earth - the nature and effects of its shape, position in the solar system and consequences, the nature and formation of crustal rocks, theories of crustal movement and formation of structural forms, structural complexes, agents and process of weathering, and simple statistics.
This is a lecture discussion course in which there is further development of the knowledge and understanding of some of the concepts associated with that section of the Cycle of Erosion caused by marine processes. A study will be made of the oceans, their major features including location, nature, movements and impact on coasts; coastal evolution including processes, erosional and depositional forms, and stages of the cycle of erosion; classification of coasts, the analysis of ordnance survey maps on a large scale.
This course provides a concise overview of specific aspects of physical planning, mapping and construction technology as they relate to the professional scope of real estate sales. It focuses on theoretical and related practical components, in order to assist participants to apply classroom concepts to on-the-job situations.
An introduction to the media and modalities used by the Physiotherapist with emphasis on massage, exercise therapy and gait re-education.
Education on the electrical powered modalities used by Physical Therapist including: Electrical Stimulation, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, Interferential Therapy, Ultra Sound, Laser and Short Wave Diathermy.
An introduction to the medical science and the physiotherapy management of selected clinical problems including orthropaedic, medical and surgical conductions.
Provides insights into plants and animal structure and function. Emphasis will be placed on physiological processes. Aspects covered shall include: regulation and control, energy and transport mechanisms.
This course introduces mechanical engineering students to the requirements of plant maintenance, providing knowledge and skills in handling, installing and testing of machinery and machine tools. The topics covered include lifting devices, slinging materials and methods, construction of foundations, machine installation and power transmission systems and devices, structure of maintenance organizations and storage and stock control arrangements.
Plant Maintenance II is a follow-up to Plant Maintenance I and examines additional types of plant systems and equipment. Topics treated include the maintenance of steam boilers, various types of air compressors, water distribution to domestic consumers and factories, water supplies for fire fighting purposes, maintenance of hydraulic pumps and systems and storage and stock control arrangement.
This course introduces students to the basic principles of the biology of plants and the application of these principles to agriculture. The course involves both theoretical and practical laboratory components.
