Independent student research in neuroscience and behavior. The work is supervised by a faculty sponsor who determines direction of the project, reports required, grade and credit awarded. The project may consist of laboratory research, library research, or some combination of the two. Credit is variable (1-6 credits) and independent study may be repeated each semester. May be taken for a letter grade or graded Satisfactory (SAT). A SAT is similar to the undergraduate Pass (P) and is defined as passing for graduate credit.

Organic farming is one of the fastest growing sectors of U.S. agriculture and is a strong indicator of the increase in consumer demand for locally grown organic food. However, the effects and benefits of organic food on health remain controversial. This course will explore the question, "What is the Impact of Organic Food on Health?" and examine more closely the role of organic food in the promotion of health within the context of the food system as a whole.

What should you do about climate change? Climate change is not just a problem for scientists to understand. It is a problem that we all must grapple with---whether that be through personal stories, historical perspectives, or challenging moral issues. In this class, we will touch on climate science and its history, we will encounter personal stories, and we will debate about ethical issues involving justice and responsibility.

From Darwin to Nye and GMOs to Wetlands, we will learn about big name scientists and pivotal scientific discoveries and ideas. As we learn the stories, we will investigate the fundamental scientific principles that bring science to life. This course is designed for students with broad interests in the natural sciences, as we will cover a new topic each week.
