    This course overviews the identification and selection of non-destructive testing methods and inspection processes to support quality assurance. Composite testing for varied manufacturing industry applications will be evaluated, including Compression tests, Bearing-strength test, Flatwise tension test and Short-beam shear test. This course considers the capabilities of most common testing methods in composite NDT applications such as Visual Testing (VT or VI), Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Thermography, Radiographic Testing (RT), Electromagnetic Testing (ET), Acoustic Emission (AE), and Shearography Testing and the demonstrated advantages and disadvantages of these methods. Inspection methods used by the NDT will be explored including dye-penetrant, eddy current inspection (EI), ultra-sound, and magnetic particle inspections (MPI). Familiarization with basic heat-treating processes, spacecraft hardware, materials and measurements will be included. Prerequisite:    Currently Not Available Corequisite:    Currently Not Available

    This course introduces students to modern livestock production and includes breeds and management of sheep, dairy, swine, horses, and poultry. Methods of production are covered including ways to produce a more healthful, consumable, and acceptable animal product. Nutritional and economical aspects of products from various types of livestock are discussed. Economic impact of livestock production on a nationwide and world basis is also discussed as well as some animal pathology and nutrition.

    This course provides a comprehensive study of livestock reproduction, the single most important economic factor of livestock production. It covers the anatomy, physiology, and endocrine aspects of livestock reproduction. Estrous synchronization, artificial insemination, pregnancy testing, and management systems are covered as well as economic considerations to maximize profits. Emphasis is on beef production, but other types of livestock are discussed. The lab component of this course gives students the opportunity to study the reproductive anatomy and physiology of reproductive tracts of live animals. The lab also allows students to practice techniques in estrous synchronization, artificial insemination, pregnancy detection, and palpation on live animals.
