This course provides a broad view of entrepreneurship. Topics include the business plan, raising money for a new venture, assessing the riskiness of new businesses and the unique management challenges of startups.

This course will cover both fundamental and cutting-edge topics in robotics. We will study the kinematics, dynamics, and autonomous control of various robotic systems (e.g., manipulators, mobile robots, and exoskeletons). The fundamentals will be studied in lectures and robot simulation exercises. State-of-the-art robotics research will be studied through paper reviews and discussion. A final research project will allow you to dive deeper into your choice of a topic covered in this course.

The course will provide an introduction to the systematic design, fabrication, testing and documentation process that is required for the commercial development of medical devices, suitable for eventual regulatory approval. The course will dissect how manufacturing, mechanical design and clinical considerations contribute to medical device development. We will focus on devices used for image guided cancer therapy, where 2 devices will be examined over course of the semester.

This course is part of the Political Science and Legal Studies Undergraduate Research Engagement Program (UREP). When possible, student interests are paired with faculty in need of research assistance. Please visit the Political Science department website for information.

This course will explore the history, purpose, procedure and practice of specialty or problem-solving courts (e.g. drug treatment courts, mental health courts, veteran's treatment courts) in the American criminal justice system in general and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in particular. Students will be required to read and discuss articles, studies, manuals, reports, etc., related to the topic. Students will also be giving opportunity to observe local specialty court sessions (in person or virtually) and then discuss their observations.

This course explores the intersection between women and the criminal justice system. The nature and extent of women as offenders, as victims, and as professionals in the criminal justice system will be explored, as well as theories related to offending and victimization. Also integral to the course is the relationship between victimization and offending and the intricacies of women's intersectionality with the criminal justice system as offenders, law enforcement and probation officers, correctional personnel, lawyers and judges.
