Rates of change, differential equations and their numerical solutions, integration, differentiation, and the fundamental theorem of the calculus. Situations in science and social science in which calculus naturally arises are emphasized.

An introduction to statistics that teaches broadly relevant concepts. Students from all disciplines are welcome. Topics include graphical and numerical methods for summarizing data; binomial and normal probability distributions; point and interval estimates for means and for proportions; one- and two-sample tests for means and for proportions; principles of experimental design. The class meets in a computer lab and emphasizes using the computer for analysis of data. Students will design experiments, collect and analyze the data, and write reports on findings. Enrollment limited to 25.

Same as QSK 101. This course is intended for students who need additional preparation to succeed in courses containing quantitative material. It will provide a supportive environment for learning or reviewing, as well as applying, arithmetic, algebra and mathematical skills. Students develop their foundational quantitative skills in arithmetic, algebra, linear equations, linear graphs, and triangle trigonometry through problem sets and group work. Enrollment limited to 20. Permission of the instructor required. This course does not carry a Latin Honors designation.

Admission by permission of the Program in Middle East Studies, normally for junior and senior minors in Middle East Studies, and for qualified juniors and seniors from other departments. Offered both semesters each year.

This is a full year course.

Admission by permission of the instructor and the Medieval Studies Council.

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.

This capstone course in the study of the built environment brings history and theory alive for those students with expertise in such diverse fields as art, architecture, American studies, engineering, and the natural sciences. An interdisciplinary approach is taken to read a landscape for its invisibles, from its geological origins to its social implications. To what degree has a landscape been shaped by its physical circumstances, designers, and inhabitants? How does it reflect its cultural heritage and project biased meanings?

Landscapes guide their use and reveal their past. This landscape design studio asks students to consider the landscape as a location of evolving cultural and ecological patterns, processes and histories. Students work through a series of site-specific projects that engage with the narrative potential of landscape and critically consider the environment as socially and culturally constructed. A variety of media are used in the design process including drawing, model-making, collage and photography. Priority given to LSS minors and ARCH majors. Enrollment limited to 14.
