SustainbleLivng:Solutions/21st

Students will work in teams to research and develop solutions to the sustainable challenges facing our society. They will collaborate to investigate, critically evaluate, effectively communicate, and reflect on the multifaceted challenges associated with addressing sustainable resource use, water, food, energy, transportation, waste management, and climate change.

Problem-BasedLrng/AdvAnimlHlth

Real-world cases involving management and veterinary medicine for large animals, companion animals, and wildlife will be presented. With instructor guidance, students will work to identify and solve problems posed by each case, while expanding their knowledge and developing skills in critical thinking, self-directed learning, problem solving, written and oral presentation, and teamwork.

ST-Intro/Representation Theory

This course will discuss various aspects of representation theory, using G = SL(2,R), R = C,Fq,R and its cousin SU(2) as the main example. In particular, we will study representation theory G. Besides studying the representations of G we would look at applications (motivation for study) of representation theory to other fields of mathematics: mathematical physics, number theory and topology. We will also discuss application to Number theory and connections with Langlands program and applications to low-dimensional topology.

Timber Harvesting

Components of timber harvesting systems; felling, bucking, primary and secondary transport. Integration of components into efficient, safe, and cost-effective harvesting systems. Lab: case studies of harvest operations in the field.

ST-Algebraic Topology

An introduction to the basic tools of algebraic topology, which studies topological spaces and continuous maps by producing associated algebraic structures (groups, vector spaces, rings, and homomorphism between them). Emphasis will be placed on being able to compute these invariants, not just on their definitions and associated theorems. Prerequisites: Math 671 and Math 611

Nutrition/Healthy Lifestyle

Introduction to the science of human nutrition. Relationship of health to food intake. Description, digestion, absorption, metabolism, interactions and functions of nutrients. Nutrient and energy requirements of young adults, athletes, older individuals. Nutrient deficiency symptoms. Body weight control. Eating disorders. Vegetarianism, other dietary preferences. Planning adequate diets that fit life-styles. Not for Nutrition majors. (Gen.Ed. BS)

ST-Comp In Fine Arts

Historical overview of the development of computing in the arts. Major types of graphics and imaging devices surveyed. Projects include hands-on experience with a computer graphics system to create both graphic output and programs. Prerequisite: completion of Art Foundations courses or consent of instructor.
