description: This course provides an introduction to nursing pharmacology that integrates the concepts of physiology, pathophysiology, chemistry, and nursing fundamentals to build a foundation for administering drug therapy to patients. Using a simple to complex approach, key content areas are presented to help conceptualize the important components related to nursing pharmacology. Incorporated into this course are major principles of mathematics such as ratio proportion, fractions, decimals, and conversion between the various systems of weights and measures. Students will learn how to competently prepare and administer medications including oral, subcutaneous, intradermal, intramuscular, intravenous formulas and injections, and reconstitution of solutions. The basic concepts of pharmacology, such as drug testing and approval, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, therapeutic and toxic effects, dosage calculations, and challenges related to drug therapy, provide the foundation from which drug therapy associated with specific body systems can be addressed. Discussion of the major drug groups focuses on therapeutic actions and indications, pharmacokinetics, contraindications and cautions, adverse effects, clinically important drug-to-drug interactions and nursing considerations which emphasize the nursing process and focus on patient care and teaching. Prototypes of the major drug groups are emphasized. Lifespan considerations, evidence for best practice, patient safety, and critical thinking are integrated throughout the course.

description: In the past physical evidence was limited to the examination of fingerprint patterns and spent firearm shell casings. However with the current advances in molecular biology and forensic science technology, this physical evidence can consist of biological material that can be used for DNA analysis, toxicological material and other trace evidence such as fabric from clothing and soil particles. Because of the results of their laboratory skills and training contribute significantly to a verdict of guilt or innocence, forensic laboratory technicians must maintain the highest levels of ethics, integrity and remain unbiased in their examination and analysis of the evidence collected. Upon successful completion of the Bioscience Forensics program courses, students will receive a Technical Certificate of Credit in Forensics. Forensics Laboratory Technicians will apply their acquired technical laboratory knowledge, analytical skills, ethical responsibility and knowledge of the legal system to further the pursuit of justice according to the law. Recipients of the Technical Certificate have will recognize and appreciate the tremendous responsibility they will have in assisting in the accurate solving of crimes and other matters that require the analysis of physical evidence in matters within the justice system. However the valuable skills obtained in the program can be utilized in many other scientific and legal positions.

description: With everything from social media posts to sensors such as FitBit, there has been an explosion of data. In this age of massive data in modern business, new technologies and skills are being developed and applied to harness this abundant data and turn it into insight. Business competition now hinges on analytics because having timely insight to make critical decisions is how businesses get an edge over their competition. This applies to small and large corporations alike. Business or Computer Analytics is a field which combines data, information technology, statistical analysis, quantitative methods and computer-based models into one. These all are combined to provide decision makers all the possible scenarios to make a well thought and researched decision. Business Analytics is defined as a set of applications, practices, skills, and technologies designed for investigating and analyzing business performance in order to achieve more strategic decision-making and structuring in the future. Preparing our students to assist is in this area will meet the demand for skilled workers to enter directly into positions that support this industry. Not all positions require an Associate's Degree. Many prospective business intelligence specialists can obtain entry level employment with a Technical Certificate of Credit in Business Analytics. These Certificate programs will typically take 16 or 32 weeks to complete. This is why many analytics software applications are going to be released with more mainstream functions that appeal to mass-market users, all requiring faster processing times and more intuitively designed databases for users of varying IT skill levels.
