EMS 101 Statistical Process Control. An introduction to measurement principals and data collection, statistical measures of central tendency and dispersion, properties of the normal frequency distribution, application of sampling statistics to X-bar and R charts, and computation and display of process capability indices. 1 credit hour.

EMS 110 Mathematics for Metalworking. A study of the material which enables the student to gain an intensive, practical, working knowledge of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. This class will include challenges of solving comprehensive problems relevant to precision custom manufacturing that are similar to what will be encountered in the work environment. 3 credit hours.

EMS 120 Trigonometry for Industrial Electricity. Topics covered include solution of right and oblique triangle trigonometry; sinusoidal curves; alternating current and phase angles; complex numbers and phasors; and applications to series, parallel and series-parallel AC circuits. Prerequisite: Satisfactory placement score or MAT 050 or MAT 053 with a grade of “C” or better or SPM 050 with a passing grade. 3 credit hours.

EMS 246 Statics. Selected topics from trigonometry, force vectors, components, moments of forces, equilibrium, and parallel force systems, concurrent and non-concurrent force systems both coplanar and non-coplanar are covered. Stress in trusses by method of joints, sections, and pins will be analyzed. Friction is also investigated. Corequisite: MAT 121 or Prerequisite: CCT 106. 5 credit hours.

EMS 247 Strength of Materials. Topics covered include calculation of stress and deformation caused by tension, compression, shear, temperature, torsion, bending and buckling loads. Results of these calculations are used to select appropriate structural members to support designated loads, analyze nonstandard beams, and design steel reinforced concrete slabs. Prerequisite: EMS 246. 5 credit hours.
