Premodern Islamic Worlds

This course introduces the Islamic world from the lifetime of the Prophet Muhammad (d. 632) to 1500 CE. The Islamic world stretches across a remarkable geographical expanse from modern Spain and Senegal in the west to the north of modern India in the east. Telling one cohesive story out of many histories is therefore challenging, even if we had a full lifetime to devote to it. We cannot include everything and, as with every complicated story worth knowing, what we choose to exclude is important. This semester, we bypass some of the traditional narratives of political and military history, which privilege the rise and fall of dynasties, the rule of great men, and the clashes of armies. We will still organize along political lines, but the focus of our conversations will be the incredible diversity of the various communities in the Islamic world. We approach these histories through primary sources— poems, coins, buildings, etc.—that we will read together in every class meeting. Our goal will be to situate each source in the political, cultural, and religious contexts of its production. This approach will allow us to appreciate premodern Islamic worlds through the centuries.

Through the assignments and conversations in class and section, students will


Explore the diversity of premodern Islam;

Analyze primary sources produced in the Islamic world before 1500, both individually and as a class;

Engage with modern scholarship about Islam in India and Central Asia; the Middle East; North, West, and East Africa; and Southern Europe;

Construct a source-based argument about the Islamic world before 1500.

Introduction to Environmental Humanities

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course introduces students to key concepts and texts in environmental humanities, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary studies of race, gender, sexuality, capital, nation, and globalization. The course examines the conceptual foundations that support humanistic analyses of environmental issues, climate crisis, and the ethics of justice and care. In turn, this critical analysis can serve as the basis for responding to the urgency of calls for environmental action.

 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Students will learn what difference humanistic studies make to understanding environmental issues and climate crisis. The course will prepare students to:


Identify humanistic methods and how they contribute to understanding the world;

Demonstrate critical approaches to reading and representing environments;

Engage ethical questions related to the environment; and

Apply concepts from the course to synthesize the student’s use of humanistic approaches to address urgent environmental questions.

This survey course with accompanying laboratory covers cell and molecular biology, biochemistry and physiology, development and genetics, evolution and ecology. Distinctively, the course emphasizes how plants are similar to and different from other organisms including not only humans and other vertebrate animals, but all other life-forms on earth.

The course complements BIOL BC1001 Revolutionary Concepts in Biology. A student can fill her entire GER natural science requirement by combining the two. These courses do not, however, fulfill requirements for biology majors or pre-health students. Either or both are nonetheless excellent preparation for those wanting to then progress to BIOL BC1500-1503.

Weekly investigative lab sessions are a mixture of two types: (a) learning and practicing scientific, technical and analytical methods used by 21st century plant scientists and (b) learning skills to improve your every-day and life-time interactions with plants as forests, as timber sources, as foods and flavorings, as sources for drugs and fuels, and in other ways.

Learning outcomes:

Detail and systematize biological diversity and species relationships using words and diagrams

Grasp biochemistry cellularly and globally, emphasizing Carbon and Nitrogen cycles

Contextualize plant-environment or plant-organism interactions including plant-human

Satisfies a Foundations distribution requirement, Natural Sciences with Lab

Satisfies a Mode of Thinking requirement: Thinking Locally

HUMAN ORIGINS & EVOLUTION

This is an introductory course in human evolution. Building on a foundation of evolutionary theory, students explore primate behavioral morphology and then trace the last 65 million years of primate evolution from the earliest Paleocene forms to the fossil remains of earliest humans and human relatives. Along with Behavioral Biology of the Living Primates this serves as a core required class for the EBHS program.

INTRO LAB EXPERIMENTAL PSYCH

Corequisites: PSYC BC1001, or its equivalent. While this lab is not required for either Psychology Major or Non-Major, it is not open to students who have already completed or are concurrently enrolled in PSYC BC1020 Research Methods and Analysis. This lab course is intended for students who have not previously been enrolled in a psychology lab course; and a majority of seats are reserved for First Year and Sophomore students. A laboratory-based introduction to experimental methods used in psychological research. Upon successful completion of this course, students will know how to review the primary literature and formulate a hypothesis, design an experiment, analyze data using statistical methods, communicate the results of a scientific study through oral presentation and written manuscript, and carry out research studies under ethical guidelines. Students will be able to apply the acquired knowledge in all disciplines of Psychology and will be prepared to engage in advance research in fields including, but not limited to, Cognition, Learning, Perception, Behavioral Neuroscience, Development, Personality, and Social Psychology.

Introduction to Computational Thinking a

INTRO COMP THINK AND DATA SCI

This course and its co-requisite lab course will introduce students to the methods and tools used in data science to obtain insights from data. Students will learn how to analyze data arising from real-world phenomena while mastering critical concepts and skills in computer programming and statistical inference. The course will involve hands-on analysis of real-world datasets, including economic data, document collections, geographical data, and social networks. The course is ideal for students looking to increase their digital literacy and expand their use and understanding of computation and data analysis across disciplines. No prior programming or college-level math background is required.
