Animal Sciences (ANSCI)

PROFESSOR ERSKINE H. CASH, Program Coordinator
COOPERATING DEPARTMENTS: Dairy and Animal Science and Poultry Science

Animal Science may be defined as the study and integration of all disciplines that relate to the function and care of animals for the benefit of humankind by providing companionship, food, fiber, and research. The Animal Sciences major includes references to all types of animals.

The educational experiences included in this major should prepare the student for a wide range of entry-level positions in production agriculture agribusiness, and allied industries, and provide preparation for the pursuit of post-baccalaureate studies leading to professional or advanced degrees. The student is expected to develop a comprehensive understanding of the biological and physical sciences underlying the functioning of all types of animals.

Realizing the wide range of career possibilities requiring diverse types of academic preparation, two options of study are available: the Business/Management Option and the Science Option.

BUSINESS/MANAGEMENT OPTION: The primary objective of this option is to prepare the student for entry-level positions in agribusiness organizations and in the animal and food industries. The student may develop a program with specie specialization or diversity. The student may develop a foundation in accounting, economics, finance, marketing, and other business-related areas. Graduates seek entry-level employment opportunities as loan officers with financial institutions; technical service and sales representatives for pharmaceutical, agri-chemical, feed or food producing companies; field representatives for breed organizations or producer cooperatives; public relations personnel for agribusiness companies; management trainees for numerous agribusiness firms; and management trainees or assistant managers of animal production units.

SCIENCE OPTION: The primary objective of this option is to prepare the student for entry into post-baccalaureate study programs in the animal and related sciences. Graduates who have obtained the proper qualifications may pursue advanced studies in a wide variety of disciplines, including animal science, biotechnology, genetics, microbiology, nutrition, physiology, operations research, and veterinary medicine. Graduates not desiring to pursue advanced studies seek entry-level employment opportunities as research technicians, technical service representatives for various industrial companies, food inspectors, laboratory animal caretakers, and public relations personnel.

American Studies (AMSTD)

American Studies is an interdisciplinary major that explores the patterns of life and thought of the American peoples, past and present. Its courses are grouped into three general areas of history, society, and culture, and it has special offerings in public history, material culture, and cultural history. The program encourages students to integrate theories, methods, and findings from various fields, including history, literature, folklore, ethnography, politics, art, architecture, and music. It also encourages applications of this knowledge to public history and cultural conservation, also known as "public heritage" work. The major helps students prepare for further study or careers in education, government, communication, law, museums, historical and cultural agencies, and archives. Internships are available for qualified students in American Studies. The internship is an extension of the student's academic studies and is an opportunity to gain practical experience.

Entry to Major Requirements:
Entry to the American Studies major requires a 2.00 or higher cumulative grade-point average.

Students should request a change-of-assignment to Penn State Harrisburg during their fourth semester, to be effective for the next semester of enrollment.

30-03-011 Change. Remove E E T 420 from Prescribed Courses and replace with E E T 420W.

Electrical Engineering Technology (E E T)

The Bachelor of Science graduate with a major in Electrical Engineering Technology (E E T) is an engineering technologist who can bridge the gap between scientific advancement and practical electrical devices and systems. Research in all fields of electrical engineering has produced an abundance of new knowledge in recent years. Many of these advanced scientific achievements have been unused due to the shortage of engineering technologists specifically educated to convert scientific information into practical devices and systems.

The E E T major helps equip students with the various skills necessary to adapt new scientific knowledge to new products. Technical selections are offered in the senior year to provide some degree of specialization, but all graduates receive a well-rounded basic education in electrical and electronic design principles. The strengths of the program include: an applied hands-on program; extensive laboratory experience; accreditation by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology; and excellent job placement.

E E T graduates who wish to continue their professional development can take the Fundamentals of Engineering examination in Pennsylvania, a prerequisite for taking the Professional Engineering examination.

For a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering Technology a minimum of 128 credits are required.

Entry to Major Requirements:
Entry to the Electrical Engineering Technology major requires a 2.00 or higher cumulative grade-point average.

Change of Assignment/Re-enrollment:
Students should request a change-of-assignment to Penn State Harrisburg during their fourth semester, to be effective for the next semester of enrollment.

English (ENGCL)

This English major, with its two options, offers students the unique opportunity to study literature in an interdisciplinary context where the relationships among literature and art, history, music, philosophy, media, and American Studies can be investigated. The major offers course in American, British, and world literatures, emphasizing their cultural and historical contexts as well as teaching students to interpret them from a variety of critical perspectives. Small classes in both creative and expository writing encourage students to develop their writing skills by working closely with faculty.

For a B. HUM. degree in English a minimum of 120 credits ~~are~~ is required. For the B. HUM. degree in English with Secondary Education Option a minimum of 123 credits is required.

GENERAL ENGLISH OPTION: With its emphases on interpretive skills, creativity, and writing, the General English Option provides a foundation for careers in such fields as publishing, public relations, communication, government and law, as well as a strong basis for graduate education.

SECONDARY EDUCATION OPTION: The Secondary Education Option ~~provides a foundation for teaching English in secondary schools~~ prepares students to meet the requirements, as established by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, to be certified for the Instructional I Certificate in Communication/English.

The following requirements for entry to the Secondary Education Option are in addition to those for entrance to the ENGCL major: 1) Students must have a cumulative grade-point average to meet or exceed the state's required minimum GPA: 2.8 for 2002/2003, and 3.0 for 2003/2004 and thereafter. 2) In addition the students must have a grade of "C" or better in six credits of college-level mathematics (MATH or STAT prefixes), three credits of college level English literature, and three credits of English composition.

30-03-073 Add new associate degree program in Radiological Sciences. Formerly taught as an option of the Science (2 SC) program; the Radiologic Technologist Radiographer Option of the Science program is being dropped.

Radiological Sciences

For students interested in pursuing an education in the paramedical field of radiography (radiologic technology), the radiological sciences major meets the educational and clinical requirements for the graduate to function as an entry level radiographer. Required coursework is divided into three inter-related areas including general education, radiography specific, and clinical education components. During the clinical education component, students perform radiographic exams under the directed supervision of certified radiographers at multiple area clinical education settings. The clinical component emphasizes the concepts of team practice and patient centered care. Both the radiography specific course work and the clinical component are structured sequentially over seven consecutive semesters, commencing each fall semester.

30-03-089 Change. Add four options: Air-Quality Option, Climatology Option, Weather Forecasting & Communications Option, and General Option; change credits as indicated with underlining.

Meteorology (METEO)

Meteorology is a rigorous scientific discipline devoted to the attainment of an increased understanding of the atmosphere and the development of methods for applying that knowledge to practical problems. Although this field is usually associated with weather prediction, it also has significance in environmental, energy, agricultural, oceanic, and hydrological sciences. For students wishing to pursue many of these areas, the department offers several options within the major.

The major requires a solid foundation in mathematics and the physical sciences, and it provides a comprehensive survey of the fundamentals of atmospheric science. It has sufficient flexibility to permit intensive advanced study in such related areas as mathematics, earth sciences, or engineering. The department has particular strengths in weather analysis and prediction, including forecast uncertainty and severe weather; physical meteorology, including radar meteorology, instrumentation and atmospheric measurements; and applied areas, including atmospheric diffusion, air pollution chemistry, dynamic meteorology, tropical meteorology, climate, and remote sensing.

Graduating meteorologists are prepared for professional employment with industry, private consulting firms, government, and the armed forces or for further study toward graduate degrees normally required for research, university, or management positions.

The freshman and sophomore years are largely devoted to preparatory work in science, mathematics, and the liberal arts. The junior and senior years involve a core of basic courses in applied and theoretical topics and a choice of courses offering specialized training. The courses unique to each option are normally taken in the junior and senior years.

For a Meteorology course to serve as a prerequisite for any subsequent prescribed or supporting Meteorology course in the major, a grade of C or better must be earned in the prerequisite course.

AIR-QUALITY STUDIES OPTION: This option enables students to gain in-depth knowledge of important areas within the air-quality field. Air-quality meteorologists are employed in both the public and private sectors. Public-sector positions include those with local, state, and federal agencies charged with regulatory, enforcement, and research activities. Within the private sector, air quality meteorologists are employed by consulting firms whose clients are concerned with meeting environmental regulations on emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere or with determining the effects of such emissions. Topics offered in the option include the physical and chemical nature of air pollutants; their sources in industrial processes and human activity; their control at the source; their transport and dispersion through the atmosphere; their interaction with other atmospheric constituents; their removal through cloud processes, fallout, and wet deposition; their effects on ecosystems, materials, and humans; and their economic and societal impacts.

CLIMATOLOGY OPTION: This option allows students to learn about the earth's climate from regional to global scales, with emphasis on assessing human impacts on the climate system. Students who pursue this area of study learn how the tropical, mid-latitude and polar regions of the atmosphere interact, as well as learn how the atmosphere interacts with the oceans, land masses and biosphere. Study of the climate changes throughout earth's history provides a perspective on potential climate changes due to human activity. Analysis of the societal aspects of climate change offers a mechanism to evaluate the importance of the magnitudes and uncertainties of the expected physical changes.

WEATHER FORECASTING AND COMMUNICATIONS OPTION: This option prepares students for careers in which their skills are weather forecasters are effectively used in a variety of ways, from science reporting and television broadcasting to web design and computer-based weather graphics production.

GENERAL OPTION: This option has sufficient flexibility to serve the needs of students who wish to pursue topics chosen broadly from subdisciplines of meteorology or from related areas. The General option is appropriate both for students who intend to pursue postgraduate degrees and for students who want to emphasize a topic for which no option exists.

Aerospace Engineering (AERSP)

This major emphasizes the analysis, design, and operation of aircraft and spacecraft. Students learn the theories and practices in the fundamental subjects of aeronautics, astronautics, aerodynamics and fluid dynamics, aerospace materials and structures, dynamics and automatic control, aircraft stability and control and/or orbital and attitude dynamics and control, air-breathing and rocket propulsion, aircraft systems design and /or spacecraft systems design. All of these place significant weight on the development and use of teamwork and communications skills for effective problem solving. Graduates in aerospace engineering find employment in the customary settings such as government laboratories, large and small aerospace firms, and in nontraditional positions that also require the use of systems-engineering approaches to problem-solving; they can also pursue graduate study in aerospace engineering and related fields.

The first two years of study are similar to those in other engineering majors and provide students with a basic education for the engineering profession. Students need to complete E MCH 012, CMPSC 201, MATH 220, MATH 230, and MATH 251 prior to the start of the junior year in order to meet graduation requirements in the following two years. Six of the nine technical-elective credits taken in the senior year must be aerospace engineering courses; however, this may be waived for students with special program requirements (including ROTC, Engineering Cooperative Education, minors, double-majors, and dual-degree programs).

For the B.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering, a minimum of 137 credits is required.

Electrical Engineering (E E)

PROFESSOR W. KENNETH JENKINS, Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering

Electrical engineering is the application of electronics, electrical science and technology, and computer systems to the needs of society. Students in the BSEE program at Penn State, University Park, master electrical engineering theory through lecture-based courses. Additional problem-solving skills and practical experience are developed through design projects and laboratory assignments, which also provide opportunities for the development of team-building and teamwork skills. These design experiences are integrated throughout the curriculum from the first year through the fourth-year capstone design course. In addition, students improve their written and oral communication skills and expand their general knowledge through a variety of additional courses in communications, arts, humanities, and the social studies that complement the technical courses.

A combination of required and elective technical courses ensures that students acquire both a broad knowledge base as well as expertise in one or more areas of specialization. Areas of specialization include antennas, communications, computer engineering, control systems, digital signal processing, electronic and photonic device fabrication and circuit design, energy conversion, fiber optics and lasers, image processing, microwaves and radar, optical computing, power systems, remote sensing, and space sciences.

The program prepares graduates for both professional careers in electrical engineering and advanced study at the graduate level in electrical engineering or a related field. Career opportunities are quite diverse, and they include research, product design and development, manufacturing, technical management, and technical sales.

The curriculum consists of one year of background science and mathematics, followed by three years of engineering course work, including a wide variety of technical electives. The General Education requirements are distributed throughout the four years.

For the B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, a minimum of 129 credits is required.

Nuclear Engineering (NUC E)

PROFESSOR RICHARD C. BENSON, Head, Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering
PROFESSOR JACK S. BRENIZER, JR., Program Chair, Nuclear Engineering Program

Nuclear engineering, the practical application of the principles of nuclear science for the benefit of humankind, provides the engineer or scientist with an opportunity to work on challenging problems that are vitally important to the modern world. The goal of the program is to provide students with a strong academic background that enables them to pursue professional careers in nuclear and radiation-based industries, or to pursue graduate study in nuclear engineering or related fields such as medical physics, health physics, or another field of engineering.

The first two years of the program stress fundamentals in mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer programming, and engineering sciences such as mechanics, materials, and thermodynamics. The last two years provide the breadth and depth in nuclear science, behavior of heat and fluids, reactor theory and engineering, and radiation measurement. The laboratory work includes experiments using the University's 1,000-kilowatt research reactor. Engineering design is incorporated in many courses from the freshman year to the senior year, but is particularly emphasized in the senior capstone design course, which integrates the critical elements of reactor theory, reactor engineering, safety considerations and economic optimization into a reactor design.

Many graduates are employed by electric power companies that use nuclear power plants, or by companies that help service and maintain those plants. They use their knowledge of engineering principles, radioactive decay, interactions of radiation with matter, and nuclear reactor behavior to help assure that the power plants meet the demand for reliable, economic electricity while ensuring a safe environment. To do this, graduates must be problem solvers who could develop and use complex computer models and sophisticated monitoring systems, design systems to handle radioactive waste, determine if the materials in the plant are becoming brittle or corroded, or manage the fuel in the reactor to get the maximum energy from it. Other graduates work in industries that use radioactivity or radiation to detect problems or monitor processes. Jobs are also found in branches of the government as designers of the next generation of reactors for submarines, aircraft carriers, or space probes, or to manage and clean up contaminated wastes. They could also be involved with regulation of nuclear power or radiation uses, or in research to develop advanced technologies that will be used in next-generation power plants. Graduates who want to further their education in the fields of health physics, radiation biology, or nuclear medical applications find this degree to be a useful preparation.

For the B.S. degree in Nuclear Engineering, a minimum of 129 credits is required.
