SCI 1010Food Chemistry4
Fall or Spring Semester An examination of how scientists address questions about life, matter and the nature of the universe. Emphasis is place on “How do we know?” and “Why does it matter?”: the methods by which scientists achieve understanding, and the perspectives on the contemporary world that this understanding provides. In this section of SCI10101 we will focus on food. The first half of the courses will focus on the economics of food production in the United States, and how it has been shaped by demand, culture, and even fashion. We will explore how modern science has enhanced food production, and how our views on genetically modified organisms, pesticides, and animal welfare are changing the modern food economy. Concurrently, we will be exploring the science that enables us to turn 454 / 615
Fall and Spring Semesters An additional classroom-hour-per-week required of SCI 1010 sections to allow aspects of the course, including hands-on or lab activities, to be treated by smaller groups of students.
Fall and Spring Semesters Designed to give students a basic knowledge and understanding of the human body. Using biological and chemical principles, it will concentrate on the functions of the main body parts, the interaction of the various body systems, the maintenance of stable internal body conditions, and the disruption of “wellness” by common diseases. It will use media articles and other sources to discuss new scientific and medical technologies related to humans. There will be several laboratory experiments during the semester, where students will learn more about themselves and the scientific process, through simple exercises. This course meets the Curry Core Science Breadth and Quantitative Literacy Enhancement requirements. Note: Students cannot take this course for credit if they have previously received credit for BIOL 1075/1175 and/ or BIOL 1085/1185.
Fall and Spring Semesters An additional classroom-hour-per-week required of SCI 1020 sections to allow aspects of the course to be treated by smaller groups of students.
