Admission by permission of the instructor and director, normally for senior minors. Advanced study and research in Landscape Studies-related fields. May be taken in conjunction with LSS 300 or as an extension of design work begun during or after a landscape studies or architecture studio.

A course focusing on the latest developments in cognitive science and the potential impact of these developments on classroom instruction. Open to seniors by permission of the instructor.

This course reviews the major theoretical approaches and directions in cultural anthropology from late 19th century to the present. These approaches include social organization and individual agency, adaptation and evolution of human culture, culture and personality, economic behavior, human ecology, the anthropology of development and change, and post-modern interpretation. The works of major anthropologists are explored including Franz Boas, Bronislaw Malinowski, Margaret Mead, Evans-Pritchard, Claude Levi-Strauss, Marvin Harris, Eric Wolf, Clifford Geertz, Sherry Ortner and others.

The cultural construction of illness through an examination of systems of diagnosis, classification, and therapy in both non-Western and Western societies. Special attention given to the role of the traditional healer. The anthropological contribution to international health care and to the training of physicians in the United States. Enrollment limited to 30.

Electrostatic and magnetostatic fields in vacuum and in matter, electrodynamics and electromagnetic waves. Prerequisite: 118 and 210 or permission of the instructor.

Classical distribution functions; blackbody radiation; quantum mechanics of the hydrogen atom, including orbital angular momentum and spin; spin-orbit interaction and fine structure; Zeeman effect; quantum statistics; lasers. Prerequisite: PHY 210 and PHY 215.

This is the first course in a two-semester sequence designed to introduce students to fundamental theoretical principles and analysis of mechanics of continuous media, including solids and fluids. Concepts and topics to be covered in this course include conservation laws, static and dynamic behavior of rigid bodies, analysis of machines and frames, internal forces, centroids, moment of inertia, vibrations and an introduction to stress and strain. Prerequisite: PHY 117, MTH 112 (or the equivalent) or permission of the instructor. Required laboratory taken once a week.
