This course is designed to bridge the Gen Eds and introductory kinesiology courses with upper-division classes and more focused study, and will provide opportunities for students to apply their scientific knowledge to real-world situations through work in teams. Additionally, there is a career development component designed to provide students with the necessary skill set to transition from students to successful careers in the field of kinesiology.

This seminar aims to explore the generative possibilities and challenges of disciplinary border-crossing. How can the humanities and arts illuminate and complicate the social, natural, and physical sciences (and vice versa)? Why and how have such divisions been constructed and enforced? Integrating collaborative methods and dialogism, the course format will discussion of diverse readings and case studies; exploratory and experimental individual and group projects; and seminar visits by faculty across specializations, fields, disciplines, departments, and colleges.
