The World Health Organization describes climate change as the biggest public health threat of the 21st century. This course will provide an overview of the key impacts of climate change on population health. We will discuss current impacts and projected future impacts through the 21st century, with a focus on climate justice and health equity.

This course will provide an overview of the key impacts of climate change on population health. We will discuss current impacts and projected future impacts through the 21st century, with a focus on climate justice and health equity. We will additionally cover difficulties in communicating climate change risks to the public and strategies for adaptation and mitigation to prevent and/or lessen projected impacts of climate change on health.

Reading of selected political theorists from 16th to 19th centuries: Machiavelli, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Tocqueville, Marx, and Nietzsche. Emphasis on the nature of the political world and the forms of understanding and activity appropriate to it.

Generating functions are a basic counting technique in combinatorics with many applications to different fields, including geometry, number theory, and representation theory. This course will be a fast-paced introduction to the subject with an emphasis on examples. Topics will include ordinary and exponential generating functions, rational generating functions, algebraic generating functions, combinatorics of gaussian integrals and matrix models, and applications to counting graphs, hypergraphs, and maps on surfaces.

This course is designed to be highly integrative in that students use knowledge and tools from all functional areas of business to develop a "whole organization" perspective. In addition, they integrate by examining these functions within the context of business and societal environments, such as the competitive, political/legal, socio-cultural, technological, and economic. Furthermore, they integrate and further develop general education knowledge and skills, such as written and oral communications in each course assignment.

Continued introduction to classical Latin vocabulary, grammar, and syntax via readings in Latin, with background on Roman imperial society. Prerequisite: LATIN 110 or equivalent with a grade of C or higher.

This course is an introduction to fundamental "design thinking" and graphic communication skills in environmental design. This studio based course introduces students to reading and responding to the site through a series of readings, drawing exercises and model explorations. Exercises will progress. No previous design or drawing experience is required.

This course offers an introduction to the probabilistic foundations and learning algorithms of generative models, with a focus on deep learning architectures. We will delve into generative models as conditional probability distributions represented by p(x|y), where x is a high-dimensional random vector, and y can be either high or low-dimensional. The curriculum encompasses various facets of generative models, including sampling, density estimation, training techniques, the exploration of latent spaces, and architectural considerations.
