First Year Seminar 191CNS02 - FYS-DoesIdentityShapeScience?

How does identity shape the questions we ask in science and research? In this course we will learn from a variety of academic disciplines (and each other) about the various ways our multiple identities?race, class, spirituality, gender, sexuality, etc.?influence our experiences and opportunities in our academic work. Together we will engage with practices and tools that researchers from a variety of disciplines, spanning the arts to the sciences, use to think about how we as individuals examine and relate to the world around us. We will also become skilled in communicating how our identities contribute to our lives as learners, researchers, and scientists.
