To include a portion of land surveying drafting (formerly ENGT-1410) so that concepts and computer skills are taught concurrently. (other portion of ENGT-1410 is included in ETST-2000 Land Surveying II) To modify math prerequisites to match math skills required for this course Prerequisite: MATH 1750; Co-Requisite: MATH 1760; Lecture 3 hours, Lab 4 hours New Course Land Surveying II 5 credits Originators: Jody Robinson RATIONALE: Course needs revision for several reasons: To adjust course code to conform with ETST course numbering To include a portion of land surveying drafting (formerly ENGT-1410) so that concepts and computer skills are taught concurrently. (other portion of ENGT-1410 is included in ETST-1000 Land Surveying I) To modify math prerequisites to match math skills required for this course Prerequisite: ETLS-1000; Lecture 3 hours, Lab 4 hours New Course Surveying Essentials 3 credits Originators: Jody Robinson RATIONALE: This course is designed with two primary goals; to fill in the gaps in the ETLS 1000/2000 sequence and to review and prepare for the LSIT exam. The ETLS 1000/2000 sequence is designed to teach all the practical everyday skills required to work in the Land Surveying industry. Some concepts and techniques are only introduced such that they facilitate practical application. ETLS 2450 takes these topics and expands on them. In addition, Surveying Essentials elicits mastery of skills required to pass the LSIT exam. Surveying Essentials is organized as both a review and a place to cover less frequently encountered topics and is designed to be taken after the ETLS 1000/2000 sequence. Topics include state plane coordinates, photogrammetry, survey astronomy, coordinate geometry, and boundary law. New Course Land Surveying Experience 4 credits Originators: Jody Robinson RATIONALE: Increasingly employers are looking for experience when they go to hire. This course not only allows students to get that experience, it helps them to connect classroom learning to job skills and encourages networking at an early point in their career. Motion: Approve Kevin Crawford 2nd -- Bruno Soffientino – The committee voted 8 0 1 to approve the revised program proposal as amended, as a package. – – Kevin Crawford, Engineering and Technology, abstained
