This class will focus on the role of the environment and related issues in the theory and practice of economics. Topics covered include externalities caused by market failures, environmental policies and regulation, basic techniques used in the valuation of non-market goods and amenities, and welfare calculation and cost-benefit analysis
An overview of the tools, tack and equipment in the equine industry and how they are utilized by different breeds and disciplines. Enrollment is limited to Equine Science and Management majors.
This course examines the interaction between the physical design and facility management of equine enterprises. Facility design needs and management will be discussed over a number of different types of enterprises, including but not limited to boarding, training, breeding, and competition facilities. Facility design will focus on safety, functionality, and client expectations; management will look at the daily facility management activities as well some limited financial considerations related to business profitability.
This course will help prepare students for the planned in-country equine experience. Students will increase their understanding of cultural and global awareness and sensitivity as well as the differences between the equine industry abroad and here in Kentucky and the United States. The in-country experience will include visits to equine related facilities and cultural and historic landmarks in the country they will be visiting. Additional fees beyond regular tuition will be incurred when taking this course.
The course will introduce students to the automotive painting process and technology, and its impact on color, appearance, coating quality, and corrosion prevention. These include pretreatment, electrodeposition, sealers/PVC, Primer, and topcoat with emphasis on material selection and technology implementation.
This course will focus on automotive assembly and production processes. During the assembly process, the vehicles are inspected to meet the manufacturer quality. In this course students, will be able to identify possible defects sources and methods to inspect and evaluate the processes using nondestructive techniques. The students will be learning both theoretical and practical principles using a combination of class and laboratory lectures.
Automation techniques for controlling equipment and processes, including applications of sensors, transducers, motor starters, variable-frequency motor drives, linear actuators, and proportional hydraulic valves. Ladder logic programming of programmable automation controllers (PACs) and programming human-machine interface (HMI) touch-screen panels.

Course will provide the background necessary to acquire a basic understanding of surface characterization and surface chemistry principles relevant to adsorption, colloidal stability, electrokinetic behavior and hydrophobicity. Examples and discussion will include how these principles apply directly to multi-disciplinary areas such as separation science, solid/liquid separation, dispersion and environmental remediation.
This seminar examines the influence of domestic institutions and the international human rights regime on patterns of government respect for human rights cross-nationally.
