Introduction to architectural fundamentals. Through the design of small projects, students investigate architectural responses to program, circulation, structure, material, and site. Students explore analog, physical, and digitally-based methods as a means of discovery, analysis, visualization, and communication. Studio: 12 hours per week. 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.

Architecture in the Landscape. With projects that address social equity and inclusivity, students explore innovative structures and designing within a complex landscape. Students learn to creatively negotiate between the built and natural environment, while immersing a visiting public in a structurally expressive space.

Architecture, Housing, and the Environment. Working collaboratively on multi-family housing projects, students investigate design for the environment, through site analysis, building assemblies design, and environmental systems research in the pursuit of a holistic, integrated architectural proposal. Projects offer multi-scaled explorations of the relationships between part and whole, difference and repetition, and architecture and site. Studio: 12 hours per week.

This course is an in depth study of the legal environment within which physical sport, and fitness services organizations function. Understanding of administrative law, labor and contract law, constitutional law, and the concepts of legal liability including torts applied to sport and fitness service organizations. Emphases will be on the ability to plan, develop, and implement risk management programs.

This course will allow undergraduate students to explore the healthcare systems of another country. Students will learn how the country's history and culture influence healthcare today through lectures and visits to cultural sites and museums. Discussions about current healthcare systems will be amplified by visits to practice sites, such as hospitals and community pharmacies. Current healthcare systems of the country and the USA will be compared and contrasted.

An examination of major theoretical approaches to the study of public opinion and mass behavior around the world. The course focuses on the study of the origins and consequences of citizens' political attitudes and behaviors. Students are exposed to experimental and non-experimental methodologies as well as statistical techniques for the analysis of survey data. Prereq: PS graduate student or consent of instructor.

This seminar covers a systematic theoretical and empirical study of civil conflict. The readings are focused on the most recent empirical work in this area, though a handful of the more traditional and case- oriented research will arise throughout the course. A major component of this course is the production of a research paper, which will apply and extend the topics into an original piece of research.

This class provides a survey of comparative political institutions across the globe with an emphasis on the concepts used to understand how institutions structure political outcomes. Students also learn about how and why political institutions vary across the globe and the consequences of institutions for a range of political phenomena. Prereq: PS graduate student or consent of instructor.

This course is intended to give students practical experience in the design and analysis of components used in agricultural machinery. Major topics include material properties, stress/strain analysis, failure theory, and mechanical components. Students will learn how to use computer software to conduct simulations and design components. Rapid prototyping and traditional fabrication techniques will be explored.

This course is intended to give students practical experience in the design and analysis of control and communication systems used in off- road vehicles. Additional emphasis will be placed on implementing simple feedback control methods using an industrial embedded controller.
