COLQ:TOPICS IN ART HISTORY

Topics course. How do we make sense of works of art and conceptualize what we see? What analytical tools and methodological assumptions guide and shape our acts of interpretation? These questions lies at the heart of our in-depth study of a select group of major Northern Renaissance paintings.

METHODS IN AMERICAN STUDIES

What do Americans want? What do they fear? What is an "American"? How do we draw the line between those who belong and those who do not? How do we define citizenship, its rights and responsibilities? How do race, gender, class and other differences affect the drawing of these boundaries, and the contents of consciousness? This course introduces some of the exciting and innovative approaches to cultural analysis that have emerged over the last three decades.

IDEAS IN AMERICAN STUDY

Topics course. Over the last decade or so, an energetic activism around disability (including blindness, deafness, mobility impairments, etc.) has been joined by a rich and varied scholarly discourse exploring embodiment and identity. Disability studies has emerged as an exciting field in which scientific, social, political, cultural and economic factors intersect. This one credit course introduces this field of inquiry through a series of lectures that address disability from the perspectives of social policy, history, literary and artistic representation, and cultural and political theory.

ADVANCED GENERAL CHEMISTRY

This course is for students with a very strong background in chemistry. The elementary theories of stoichiometry, atomic structure, bonding, structure, energetics and reactions are quickly reviewed. The major portions of the course involve a detailed analysis of atomic theory and bonding from an orbital concept, an examination of the concepts behind thermodynamic arguments in chemical systems, and an investigation of chemical reactions and kinetics. The laboratory deals with synthesis, physical properties and kinetics.

INTRODUCTION TO ANALYSIS

The topological structure of the real line, compactness, connectedness, functions, continuity, uniform continuity, sequences and series of functions, uniform convergence, introduction to Lebesgue measure and integration. Prerequisites: MTH 211 and MTH 212, or permission of the instructor.

INTRO/PROBABILITY/STATISTICS

Same as SDS 220. An application-oriented introduction to modern statistical inference: study design, descriptive statistics; random variables; probability and sampling distributions; point and interval estimates; hypothesis tests, resampling procedures and multiple regression. A wide variety of applications from the natural and social sciences are used. Classes meet for lecture/discussion and for a required laboratory that emphasizes analysis of real data. MTH 220 satisfies the basis requirement for biological science, engineering, environmental science, neuroscience and psychology.
