ST- Intelligent Manufacturing

In this course, we will review traditional manufacturing tools and will discuss why some of them are insufficient for new manufacturing techniques, such as using traditional semiconductor tools for flexible electronics printing. We will learn popular machine learning and artificial intelligent tools in advanced manufacturing systems, including basic knowledge of pattern analysis, expert systems, neural networks, and knowledge-based or rule-based intelligent systems.

ST-Hist/ReproductiveRightsLaw

This course will explore the history of reproductive rights law in the United States, centering the reading of statutes, court decisions, amicus briefs, and law review articles. We will look at the progression of cases and legal reasoning involving a wide variety of reproductive rights issues, including forced sterilization, contraception, abortion, forced pregnancy/c-sections, policing pregnancy (through welfare law, employment policies and criminal law), and reproductive technologies.

ST-Dynamical Sys & ErgodicThry

Dynamical systems is an exciting and very active field in pure and applied mathematics, that involves tools and techniques from many areas such as analyses, probability and number theory. A dynamical system can be obtained by iterating a function or letting evolve in time the solution of equation. Even if the rule of evolution is deterministic, the long term behavior of the system is often chaotic. Different branches of dynamical systems, in particular ergodic theory, provide tools to quantify this chaotic behavior and predict it in average.

Directing Studio

Problems in play direction. Work chosen and closely supervised by the performance faculty and presented in a production format determined by the student's current needs and abilities and demands on the department's performance facilities. Credit, 1-6.

The DNA Experience

This laboratory course will provide students with hands-on experience with essential laboratory methods used for public health research. Students will isolate and quantify their DNA, and perform PCR for genotyping. Other modules include Crime Scene Investigator, bioinformatics and genetically-modified organisms.
