Subject Catalog Number Title Semester General Education Courses General Education Code Credit Hours Maximum Repeat Hours Course Description PSC 1050 Color, Light, and Sound 2NS 3 0 Designed for nonscience majors. Physical nature of light and sound including transmission, absorption, reflection, interference, and resonance. Applications include analysis of musical instruments, acoustics, optical systems, perception of color and sound. PSC 1051 Color, Light, and Sound 2NS 4 0 Designed for nonscience majors. Physical nature of light and sound including transmission, absorption, reflection, interference, and resonance. Applications include analysis of musical instruments, acoustics, optical systems, perception of color and sound. PSC 1310 Nano-Science and Technology 2NS 3 0 Introductory course covering an overview of the concept of scale, and of novel phenomema that arise as a function of scale, instrumentation that allows probing systems on the nanoscale, fabrication methods that yield nanoscale geometries, and the influence of this emerging field in our current and future lifestyles. PSC 1400 Observational Astronomy Laboratory 2NS 1 0 Experience with telescopes and locating stars, planets, and deep-sky objects in the night sky. Also covers major constellations, seasonal variations, lunar cycles, and, when appropriate, eclipses and comets. Should be taken as ASTR 1400. PSC 2050 Life on Other Worlds? 2NS 3 0 An exploration of ideas relating to the possibility that life exists elsewhere in the universe, both on planets and moons within our solar system, and within other planetary systems. The course begins by considering our planet's formation and the conditions which may have led to life appearing here, then moves outward. Students will learn the scientific basis of the age of the Earth and the Universe and the physical conditions necessary for planets around other stars to harbor life as we know it. Astronomical observations are discussed regarding what we know about extrasolar planets. AAS 1010 African American History I, 1526-1875 2SS 3 0 Examines economic, demographic, social, cultural and political topics in African American history from African origins to the Emancipation era. The evolution of race relations is an important component of this course, but the major emphasis will be placed on the experiences of Black people, the development of rural communities, and the potentiality and challenges facing interracial cooperation, within the framework of larger socio-economic and political processes in U. S. history. Page 40 of 63 November 17, 2011
Semester General Education Courses Subject Catalog Number Title AAS 2020 African American History II, 1876 to late twentieth century General Education Code Credit Hours Maximum Repeat Hours Course Description 2SS 3 0 Examines a series of topics¿economic, demographic, social, cultural and political¿in African American history from 1876 to the late twentieth century. The evolution of race relations is an important component of this course, but the major emphasis will be placed on the internal experiences of ordinary African Americans, within the framework of larger socioeconomic and political processes in U. S. history. In addition to providing topical perspectives (e.g., work, family, and religion), the course will pay close attention to chronology and change over time. CFS 2700 Intimate and Family Relationships 2SS 3 0 Explores human relationship processes leading to a variety of marriage and family experiences over the life span. The importance of cultural contexts and individual values, styles, and decision-making will be considered as they relate to relationship processes. CFS 2710 Individuals and Families Over the Lifespan 2SS 3 0 The purpose is to study the individual and family from a family and individual life span perspective. A variety of theoretical frameworks and perspectives will be reviewed, including life span developmental theory. Current research in the field of family science and child development will be surveyed. CLAR 2110 Greek Archaeology 2SS 3 0 Introduces Greek society and culture through investigation of its artifacts and the contexts in which they are found. Explores the different approaches to investigating particular kinds of material evidence, and what aspects of Greek culture they reveal. Starting with the Minoans and Mycenaeans, examines the growth of civilization in Bronze Age Greece and its rebirth after the fall of the Mycenaean palaces, to the appearance of city-states, and the rise of Philip of Macedon in the 4th century. Examines how to identify and date different types of material evidence, and be able to show their relevance to the reconstruction of ancient Greek culture as a whole. CLAR 2120 Roman Archaeology 2SS 3 0 Explores the material remains from the Roman world and of the information they provide about Roman society. Among other things, examines sculpture, painting, coinage, and architecture to learn how Romans at various levels of society used objects, images and built structures to make statements about themselves. Examines how these messages differed from one part of the empire to another. Teaches how to look at and 'read' objects and images. Special emphasis placed on methodologies used to interpret them.
