<br />(4)
<br />This course provides an in-depth understanding of how
<br />to assemble, configure, and validate computer
<br />platforms. Students will learn about the mobile and PC
<br />hardware, software, and operating systems used in
<br />respective platforms. Students will learn about the
<br />hardware and network troubleshooting tools,
<br />techniques, operational procedures, and problem
<br />solving methodologies.
<br />MATH 120. General Algebra (3)
<br />This course introduces elements of algebra that include
<br />fractions, linear equations, and inequalities,
<br />Coursework progresses to introduce exponents,
<br />polynomials, and polynomial expressions. The use of
<br />graphing of one and two variables is used to highlight
<br />applications. The course concludes with quadratic
<br />functions and their solutions. The emphasis is on
<br />general concepts and applications of algebra that are
<br />aligned with the student's field of study.
<br />MATH 125. Intermediate Algebra (3)
<br />This course introduces algebraic concepts, such as set
<br />operations, factoring, linear equations, quadratic
<br />equations, exponents, radicals, polynomials, rational
<br />expressions, rectangular coordinates, ratios and
<br />proportions.
<br />MATH 135. College Algebra (3)
<br />This course covers algebraic relationships, functions
<br />and graphs that build on basic, intermediate algebra,
<br />emphasizing solving for one or two unknown variables
<br />in complex equations, graphing single -variable
<br />polynomial functions, quadratic and rational
<br />inequalities, linear and quadratic variables, remainder
<br />and factor theorems and exponential and logarithmic
<br />functions.
<br />MATH 211. Calculus I (4)
<br />This course is designed to develop the topics of
<br />differential and integral calculus. Emphasis is placed on
<br />limits, continuity, derivatives and integrals of algebraic
<br />and transcendental functions of one variable. Upon
<br />completion, students should be able to select and use
<br />appropriate models and techniques for finding
<br />solutions to derivative -related problems with and
<br />without technology
<br />NUR 101. Fundamentals: Care of Adult and Older
<br />Adult (3)
<br />This course is designed to introduce comprehensive
<br />beginning nurse concepts through the study of nursing
<br />history and theories, cultural diversity, human lifespan
<br />development teaching/learning, communication
<br />approach and legal, ethical moral and professional

<br />program philosophy, the wellness -illness continuum,
<br />Nursing Process and Quality and Safety Education for
<br />Nurses (QSEN) goal. Critical thinking, best practices,
<br />and scientific evidence will be employed to identify bio
<br />psychosocial alterations for age appropriate
<br />client/patient centered care.
<br />NUR 101-C. Fundamentals: Care of Adult and Older
<br />Adult, Clinical (4)
<br />Principles of teamwork in healthcare, collaboration,
<br />quality improvement and informatics will be explored
<br />and developed throughout the course. Students will be
<br />under the direct supervisor of the College's Licensed
<br />personnel, at a BRN approved clinical site to develop
<br />their clinical skills and interpersonal skills of effective
<br />patience, compassion, and attention to detail.
<br />NUR 101-L. Fundamentals: Care of Adult and Older
<br />Adult, Laboratory (1)
<br />Educational activities to efficiently and accurately train
<br />the students to learn and develop skills and judgement
<br />for appropriate care of clients. Students will receive a
<br />variety of activities from trained nursing instructors
<br />using role-playing and lifelike virtual environments to
<br />enhance their clinical practice. Opportunities for
<br />practicing select psychomotor skills will be provided
<br />and the use of simulation will enhance the student's
<br />critical thinking and clinical decision -making skills.
<br />This course will focus on the older adult which is fifty-
<br />five and older.
<br />NUR 102, Intermediate Medical -Surgical Nursing
<br />(3)
<br />This course assists the nursing student with basic
<br />synthesis and integrates nursing knowledge and skills
<br />in providing care to patients who have health
<br />alterations. Focus will be for the students to identify
<br />client/patient needs and plan priority of nursing care.
<br />NUR 102-C. Intermediate Medical -Surgical Nursing,
<br />Clinical (2)
<br />Associated psychomotor skills will be integrated and
<br />practiced. The Nursing Process, the Quality and Safety
<br />and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) goals, Critical
<br />thinking, best practices, and scientific evidence will be
<br />employed to identify alterations for age appropriate
<br />client/patient centered care. Students are provided
<br />patient care opportunities in a variety of clinical
<br />settings.
