DIVISION OF MATHEMATICS,
SCIENCE AND COMPUTING New course announced:
2 credits This course will
examine behavioral neuroscience from a species- and research-based
perspective. Model organisms have both limitations and strengths as research
systems, and the anatomy, complexity, and behavior of these species have
shaped the current state of knowledge on the structure and function of the
nervous system. Each week, discussions will focus on a particular organism,
exploring the studied behaviors and the contributions to neuroscience made in
the species. In the process, the fundamentals of neuroscience will be
discussed with an emphasis on the context in which they were discovered and
the ways these discoveries shape future research. Readings from the primary
literature will highlight the historical and current importance of the
organism to our understanding of the brain and behavior. By scrutinizing the
papers, students will become familiar with the complexities of experimental
design and gain experience in critically analyzing scientific research. Prerequisite: permission of the
instructor. On-line

DIVISION OF SOCIAL STUDIES New course announced:
Cross-listed: French Studies, German
Studies, Science, Technology & Society, Victorian Studies The course will
outline some of the principle transformations in the modern understanding of society
and nature within a political, cultural, and institutional framework. Particular attention will be placed on the
interrelation of science, theology and philosophy that characterized the
period from Descartes and Leibniz to Mach and Nietzsche. Our attention will largely focus on the
nineteenth century, using as our guide a close reading of texts from writers
such as Vico, Kant, Hegel, Wollstonecraft, Burke, Fourier, Bakunin, Marx and
Darwin. Texts will be read in
conjunction with a selected study of contemporary political forces,
institutional settings, and scientific, social, or artistic practices. Major
topics of interest include skepticism, the interrelation of enlightenment and
romanticism, feminism, conservatism, utopian socialism, nationalism and
anarchism. Please note that this
course is not intended for first year students; a prerequisite for it is the
second half of First Year Seminar. Additional section announced:
Note that HR 233 Problems in Human Rights, HR 235 - A New Law on Earth: Dignity and the Human Rights Tradition, and HR 240 - Observation and Description are Human Rights Program core courses. HR 227 - Dissent and Totalitarianism in Eastern Europe is not. Please note that the prerequisite for ECON 242 is ECON 101 (not ECON 102 as originally listed) New course announced:
Cross-listed: Africana Studies; GISP The course will examine the government and politics in Africa since 1960. The course will thus raise a number of inter-related questions: In what ways have pre-colonial and colonial historical processes shaped politics in post-colonial Africa? What are the socio-economic factors that have shaped contemporary African politics? What are the human rights and democracy challenges that post-colonial Africa face? In response to these questions, we will explore Africa's political culture, the role of civil society in African politics, the character of African politics and the role of the media in shaping public political opinion in Africa. We will use books, media products, speeches and writings of African political figures. The class will emphasize the following cases: South Africa, Sudan, Senegal and Nigeria. On-line registration Tutorial announced:
Students interested in Political Theory should contact Professor Kettler to arrange a tutorial. New Description:
Cross-listed: French
Studies; German Studies; Global & Intl Studies; Human Rights The course examines the often dramatic transformation of
Western European, and in particular British, German and French,
political life from the rise of fascism and World War II in the 1930s
and 1940s to our contemporary period, including the present day
conflicts and challenges facing the region. In order to understand
Western Europes historical transformation, one must also understand the
workings of European electoral systems (including proportional
representation) and parliamentary systems. We will be especially
concerned with the future of European welfare states which, in contrast
to the US, often provide all citizens free health care, childcare and,
even free university education; the influence of environmentalism,
the Greens and other social movements; political leaders often
troubled efforts to develop a European Union conducive to peace,
prosperity and human rights; and changing responses to immigration,
particularly from the Muslim world. The course will draw on both a
range of readings and selected European films. Schedule announced:
