Course Overview

This is an Integrated Learning Course which emphasizes the fourth Undergraduate Learning Outcome: Knowledge and Inquiry, in particular scientific and quantitative approaches to understanding human experience and the natural world. The Honors version of this course also emphasizes more sophisticated readings, research tools, questions, evidence, and analysis typical of upper level courses. This course will be taught by one or more faculty members and will focus on a central topic while drawing material from more than one discipline; topics will vary from section to section and semester to semester. Students will engage in experiential learning activities related to a City-as-Text feature, that may include service learning opportunities, to reinforce and enhance the academic content of the course.
