Since the days of Leonardo da Vinci, writers of natural history have straddled science and literature in their attempts to understand the world. We'll read and analyze the works of great naturalists and incorporate some of their strategies--empirical observation, reporting, academic research, memoir--into our own writing. Authors may include Italian biologist Francesco Redi; French naturalist Jean-Henri Fabre; U.S. poet Robert Frost; and others. This course satisfies a WAC Writing Intensive requirement, an Integration in the Humanities requirement, and counts towards the Sustainability minor. ENVR 298-W03 is cross-listed with ENGL 202-W03; there are 5 seats available on the ENVR side and fifteen seats available on the ENGL side. Please note that ENGL 202 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 201, 203, or 204. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121, or 190.

This course considers two closely related but distinct concepts in systems engineering, verification and validation. Verification is “The process of evaluating a system or component to determine whether the products of a given development phase satisfy the conditions imposed at the start of that phase.” (IEEE Standard Glossary of Software Engineering Terminology, Standard 610.12-1990.) Validation is the act of assessing the requirements, design, and development of a product to ensure that it will meet the user’s requirements, operational needs, and expectations at the time of delivery. Systems engineering verification and validation practices will be studied and applied in appropriate situations. Prerequisite: ETLS 508 - Systems Design

Many engineering systems are inherently dynamic in nature. Characterizing and designing such systems requires mathematical modeling, simulation, and visualization using modern software such as MATLAB, SIMULINK, and SolidWorks, possibly with add-on modules. Lectures focus on the detailed applied mathematical modeling of a variety of systems from different energy domains with a bias towards mechanical systems such as mechanical translational, mechanical rotational, hydraulic, thermal, among others. The laboratory has 3 components to it: (1) software training(as necessary) , (2) developing dynamic models using MATLAB and SIMULINK, (3) creating CAD models of systems, and (4) integrating the dynamics models with the visualization to create computer animations of the resulting motions of the mechanical systems. Students also work on a team-based dynamic simulation and visualization of mechanical systems project.

This course introduces and details the subject of Employee Benefits. In the United States a wide-range of insurance and insurance-related coverages are provided through employers. As such, anyone studying insurance is well-served to understand the many key differences that arise in the provision of insurance to groups of employees. Indeed, a central feature of this course is the investigation of the Group Insurance concept, where underwriting focuses not on the individual but on the group as a whole. Government regulation of employee benefit programs, while having some common features with insurance regulation generally, has a number of additional features—especially at the national government level. Additionally, the course will focus on the specifics of group life and disability insurance, group health insurance, group long term care, savings and investment programs, and—to complete the picture—some treatment of a wide-range of newer programs—wellness, group legal, childcare, and more. This course will serve as a particularly meaningful introduction to individuals that might aspire to work in the Human Resources area of an organization, in addition to students interested in working for insurance companies that specialize in group insurance.

It not only traces how ideas and lived experiences within each of those categories of historical analysis changed over time, but also shows how developments in each realm of American life shaped the others. It pays special attention to how American politics, institutions, and cultural norms emerged from—and produced—a changing role for the United States in its global context. It also interrogates how efforts to define American identity have both provided the terrain for inclusion and been used to justify the exclusion of various people, including racial, ethnic, and immigrant groups, people of different genders and sexual identities, and people of diverse religious and political beliefs.

This course examines philosophical arguments for and against the existence of God and for the claim that the Christian faith, in particular, has been revealed by God; it also considers how faith, reason, and doubt are related. Possible questions include: Are there any good arguments for God’s existence? Does the evil in the world make it unlikely there is a God? Are faith and reason (including the findings of science) compatible? Could it be reasonable to believe in certain foundational Christian claims such as that Jesus is divine, that Jesus founded and gave authority to the church, and that the Bible is the word of God? Does the plurality of religions undermine the particular claims of any one of them? Can one make religious commitments in a state of doubt about the evidence? Prerequisite: PHIL 110 or PHIL 115.

In recent decades, infectious diseases such as West Nile virus, Ebola, Zika, MERS, HIV, H5N1 and H1N1 influenza virus have jumped geographical boundaries and even species boundaries to emerge in new populations. This class offers an introduction to emerging and reemerging infectious disease and focuses on the underlying mechanisms of microbial emergence, epidemiology, and the strategies available to contain them. In this age of antibiotics and vaccines, why do millions die each year from infectious diseases worldwide? With new pathogens continuing to emerge, can we ever hope to win the battle? The emergence and re-emergence of infectious diseases involves many interrelated factors. Global interconnectedness continues to increase with international travel and trade; economic, political, and cultural interactions; and human-to-human and animal-to-human interactions. This course will address the biological mechanism of infectious disease and the socioeconomic and ecological factors that influence the outbreak of infectious diseases.

We will pay particular attention to health systems and the role these systems play in promoting health and development around the globe. The course is global in its scope, but the focus of many of our discussions will be on low- and middle-income countries, the health of the poor, and health inequity. The relationship between health and socio-economic development will be examined throughout the course. The course will expose students to concepts from social epidemiology, such as social determinants of health and the impact of various social, economic, political, and historical contexts on health.

Course description: Epidemiology (“epi”) is the study of the distribution and determinants of health and disease patterns in human populations. As a scientific method, epidemiology can be used to investigate, analyze, and ultimately prevent or control health problems on the population level. In this course you will develop your understanding of the epidemiologic approach for addressing important population health problems. You will have the opportunity to examine various population health issues from an epidemiologic perspective. Initially, you will learn to speak the “epi” language such that you can describe data in epidemiologic terms and examine associations between exposures and health/disease outcomes. You will also develop skills to conduct basic data analysis, critically analyze epidemiologic study methods, and assess the validity of “epi” study results. You will leave this course with a better understanding of both the significant impact of epidemiology on human health as well as some of the limitations of the science. Prerequisites: PUBH 220 and DASC 120, or Junior Standing and DASC 120, or Permission of the instructor.

Welcome to PUBH 350: Environment, Health and Justice. In this course we will examine public health structures, principles, tools, and programs used to address current and historical environmental health issues. Throughout the course we will consider how the world we live in impacts our health, how we negatively impact the environment and our own health, and what can be done to improve population health. We will consider these topics from an environmental justice perspective because around the world environmental hazards and diseases are not equally distributed across all populations. Environmental health issues are complex and in order to more fully understand them we will draw on ideas and concepts from sociology, economics and environmental epidemiology, toxicology, and regulation. This course will encourage you to understand and think critically about ways public health systems measure, control, and remove exposures to environmental hazards to protect population health.

The purpose of this course is to guide students through the knowledge, skills, and opportunities needed to develop an ethical foundation on which they can build their careers as AI practitioners or as professionals in other fields that have been or will be impacted by AI. We will explore a variety of ethical issues related to the development and use of AI across multiple fields of study, with an emphasis on the human impact of AI. Course topics will cover a range of foundational AI concepts including data preparation, bias, neural networks, natural language processing, large language models, generative AI, model validation, and more, in the context of issues like discrimination, misinformation, intellectual property, regulation, jobs, and humanity at large. Class sessions are comprised of a weekly “hot topic” where we will explore the ethical implications of current events in AI, a lecture period, and lab where students have the opportunity to discuss and apply the course material to practical and theoretical exercises. This course is intended for both technical and non-technical audiences.

In this course, students will explore approaches to theology that emerge out of diverse cultural contexts. Sections may focus on biblical interpretation, dynamics of church life, mission work, or transnational solidarity through the eyes of the marginalized, or they may focus on efforts to articulate and bear witness to the gospel amid new cultures and historical challenges, according to the instructor’s discretion. Sections may focus on experiences of marginalization and oppression as a source for theological reflection for women (giving rise to feminist/womanist/mujerista theologies, for example), or for people of color or indigenous peoples (giving rise to Latin American, African-American, Minjung, and South African liberation theologies, for example), or for economically exploited classes (also giving rise to liberation theologies). This course will thus provide an opportunity to learn how the global Christian community is gaining fresh insights into the gospel that were missed when the dominant perspective on theology reflected primarily the experience of European men, or to learn how claims by Christians have at various times served both to challenge and to reinforce systems of power and privilege.
