AMCD 200, American Culture:Power/Identity: (This course was originally titled ACST 200: Introduction to American Culture and Difference; the name change has been submitted as an information item to the UCC). In AMCD 200, students learn about the historical and theoretical foundations of Cultural Studies as an academic discipline and use cultural theory to analyze a variety of cultural products and representations. In this course, students look specifically at dominant and subversive constructions of gender, race, ethnicity, national and sexual identities, and how these constructions are deployed through cultural practices and productions such as sports, film and television, folklore and popular culture, youth subcultures, music, and so on. For example, the course may contain units on "nation" and the creation of American mythologies; the process of hero-making in American history; stereotypes and the representation of race and ethnicity in television and film; representations of gender and sexuality in advertising; as well as a section on American music from jazz, blues, folk and roots music, to rock and roll, punk, and hip-hop.

Human understanding of the brain and nervous system has improved dramatically over the past three decades. With the rapid expansion of knowledge has come an understanding that behavioral and cognitive disorders associated with both childhood development and with aging have a biological basis, and many have their origins in the interaction between the nervous system and environmental factors. Recent research has revealed that a healthy brain and nervous system depends on sound biologic function. Therefore, a basic understanding of the biology of the brain and nervous system, and of how the nervous system interacts with environmental factors, is necessary. This course will cover fundamental biological processes in the brain and nervous system, the role of the nervous system in human and animal behavior, and how environmental influences impact these processes at the cellular and organismal levels.

Recent research has revealed that a healthy brain and nervous system depends on sound biologic function. Therefore, a basic understanding of the biology of the brain and nervous system, and of how the nervous system interacts with environmental factors, is necessary. This course will cover fundamental biological processes in the brain and nervous system, the role of the nervous system in human and animal behavior, and how environmental influences impact these processes at the cellular and organismal levels. Prerequisite or corequisite: BIOL 209

All neuroscience is a multidisciplinary enterprise that draws on findings from diverse fields, ranging from molecular genetics to comparative psychology. Comparative Neurology involves scrutinizing brain anatomy and physiology, relating brain structure to function, and linking each of these to behavior and ecology. In this course, we will explore how the human brain has emerged, discover some rules of how brains generally evolve (and develop some of our own), and determine what factors have guided the phylogenetic development of this complex structure. Throughout the course, laboratory projects and problem sets will support our classroom discussions. Prerequisite: C- or better in NSCI 301 or permission of the instructor.

In this course, we will examine the neural and hormonal correlates of social behavior including vocalcommunication, aggressive behavior, reproductive behavior, pair bonding, parental behavior, and humansociality. We will consider how hormones influence the development and activation of behavior and, in turn,how behavior influences neural and endocrine physiology. A comparative approach will be emphasized tofacilitate understanding the adaptive function of molecular and physiological mechanisms of behavior aswell as the translational nature of behavioral neuroendocrinology research. In the laboratory component of the course, students will design and implement an experiment investigating the neuroendocrine regulation of social behavior in a non-human animal model. Prerequisite: A C- or better in NSCI 301 (or permission of the instructor).

This capstone neuroscience course uses the physiological process of sleep as a lens to evaluate neural connectivity, neurochemical modulation, and sensory integration. This course will emphasize sleep as central to neural development, learning, and health. As part of the laboratory work, students will track their own sleep and circadian rhythms through temperature, behavioral, and hormonal assessment. Prerequisites: NSCI 301 and senior standing (or permission from the instructor).

Writing in the Discipline
Seminars in political science provide an opportunity for students to synthesize and further develop knowledge gained in previous courses and enhance their critical and analytical skills. Students will engage in reading and discussion and undertake a major research project pertinent to the seminar's topic. Specific topics or themes of each seminar will vary. Seminars are offered in each of the sub-fields of the discipline. Prerequisite: Juniors and seniors may enroll in a seminar once they have completed at 300-level course within that subfield, or with permission of the instructor.
