This lecture course runs in an asynchronous format. There are no online meetings, rather, modules are completed with assignments due online weekly, including exams.  You will need a reliable internet connection for this course and the ability to successfully navigate various online websites and animations. A laptop or desktop computer is needed to successfully complete the asynchronous work in this class. A tablet device or phone is insufficient to complete the work.  There is a co-requisite face to face lab that meets on the Manchester campus at the scheduled times. Students must register for the Manchester co-requisite lab course if planning to take this online lecture course. There is no required text for the course (recommended text is placed on reserve in the library and more information can be found on the booklist).
