Political Economy of the Envir

Application of the theories of political economy to environmental problems and issues. Topics include regulatory and market approaches to pollution and natural resource depletion; cost-benefit analysis and its economic and political foundations; and case studies of specific environmental problems such as acid rain, deforestation, and global warming.

Circuits and Electronics I

Mathematical models for analog circuit elements such as resistors, capacitors, opamps and MOSFETs as switches. Basic circuit laws and network theorems applied to dc, transient, and steady-state response of first- and second-order circuits. Modeling circuit responses using differential equations Computer and laboratory projects. NOTE: Grades of C or better in MATH 132 and PHYSICS 152 are strongly recommended.

Advanced Arabic I

Focuses on reading sustained samples of Arabic prose in various fields -- fiction, biography, history, journalism, political critiques. Students explore a range of complex grammatical structures and idiomatic expressions in these texts. Equal emphasis placed in reading, writing, speaking, and oral comprehension.

Statistical Methods:Undergrad

(Formerly MTH 201/ PSY 201). An overview of the statistical methods needed for undergraduate research, emphasizing methods for data collection, data description and statistical inference, including an introduction to study design, confidence intervals, testing hypotheses, analysis of variance and regression analysis. Techniques for analyzing both quantitative and categorical data are discussed. Applications are emphasized and students use R for data analysis. This course satisfies the basic requirement for the psychology major.

Chemistry III Lab: Organic Lab

Lab section. Material builds on introductory organic chemistry topics covered in CHM 222 and focuses more heavily on retrosynthetic analysis and multistep synthetic planning. Specific topics include reactions of alkyl halides, alcohols and ethers; aromaticity and reactions of benzene; and cycloaddition reactions including the Diels-Alder reaction. Corequisite: CHM 223. Prerequisite: CHM 222/ CHM 222L, or equivalent. Enrollment limited to 16.

War Stories

An inquiry into the rules governing the representation of war in the late-19th, 20th, and 21st century, this course will focus on a variety of international conflicts, with particular attention to the wide variety of ways in which the experience of war is communicated to non-combatants: film, journalism, memoir, narrative, photography, poetry, etc. The history of U.S. involvement in these recent wars, as well as those which are on-going, will be a central focus of our course.
