Basic techniques will be practiced in the student laboratory and conventional microscopic, cultural, and immunologic techniques used for the isolation and identification of microorganisms, that are pathogenic to humans, will be reviewed.

This course is designed to review primary concepts taught in the major medical laboratory science disciplines. Reviews will be conducted by utilization of clinical and multi-disciplinary case studies, certifying mock examinations, comprehensive writing activity, and additional review assignments. This course is a Graduation Composition and Communication Requirement (GCCR) course in certain programs, and hence is not likely to be eligible for automatic transfer credit to UK.

This course consists of a supervised practicum in which students will integrate practice and theory of clinical microbiology in a health care setting and expose them to the scope of work, variety of test, and automation found within the microbiology department. Laboratory, 35-40 hours per week. The number of credits will depend on the student's prior experience.

This course consists of a supervised practicum in which all students will integrate practice and theory of clinical chemistry in a health care setting and expose them to the scope of work, variety of tests, and automation found within the hematology department. Laboratory, 35-40 hours per week. The number of credits will depend on the student's prior experience.

This course consists of a supervised practicum in which students will integrate practice and theory of immunohematology (blood bank) in a health care setting and expose them to the scope of work, variety of tests, and automation found within the immunohematology department. Laboratory, 35-40 hours per week. The number of credit will depend on the student's prior experience.

Orientation to the mining engineering profession; introduction to key mining engineering activities and functions; mining methods and equipment; health and safety subsystems.

Principles and practices of mineral processing with emphasis on state- of-the-art separation technologies. Mineral deposits, sampling theory, slurry calculation, and particle motion in fluid streams. Unit operations for processing particulate materials. Crushing and grinding, screening, gravity separation, magnetic and electrostatic separation, froth flotation, dewatering and clarification. Low grade ores and by products or waste streams are examined as source material, particularly for critical minerals. Flowsheets, process selection and plant performance evaluation.

Application of principles studied in MNG 301. Laboratory, two hours.

This course addresses drilling and blasting performance, types and properties of commercial explosives, initiation and priming, explosive selection, basic blast design, explosive applications. The course is a prerequisite/co-requisite for those without an equivalent course credit enrolled in the DL certificate.

Theory and practice of mine haulage, hoisting and drainage and pumping. Application of engineering principles to the analysis and selection of materials handling mediums for the minerals industry.
