5 courses with the subject MDSC, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
In this project-based course, students explore a social or intellectual problem using at least two knowledge perspectives. Faculty and students follow a collaborative process of exploration, discussion, and problem solving that integrates knowledge perspectives and core intellectual skills.
The goal of this course is to explore the environmental, social and economic issues and problems arising out of the global fashion industry. We will examine where and how our clothing is manufactured, distributed and disposed of as well as some of the innovative approaches some companies are taking in order to address some of the problems associated with the industry.
This course will cover a wide range of psychological/neurological disorders (e.g., drug abuse, depression, schizophrenia, eating disorders etc) and discuss the drug-induced changes in functioning of the nervous system with respect to behavior. Specifically, the focus of this course will be to provide 1) a brief overview of the causes, symptoms, progression and treatment options of some of most prevalent psychological/neurological disorders among college students and older adults, 2) a description of the effects of various disorders on the brain and how pharmacological intervention and therapeutic strategies may (or may not) address these effects.
In this course, we examine literary works that are short in form, drawing on the novella or short novel, the short story, drama, film, and the poem. Including brief form as an element in short literature’s imaginative force, we focus on textual analysis and interpretation through close reading, text-to-text connections, and examination of formal elements pertinent to the various genres. Assigned texts provide the basis for class discussion, examinations, and analytic essays. This multidisciplinary course shares certain units with MDSC203.F Topics in Social Psychology.
Would you obey someone you didn’t even know? Go along with a group that was doing a dangerous activity? Stand by while someone was getting hurt and not call for help? Mistrust and/or judge a person because of how s/he looked? Stand up to those who tried to exclude people from your group? Whether your answer to any of these questions was definitely no or yes, this social psychology course will help you further examine how individuals influence and are influenced by groups and by society. This multidisciplinary course shares certain units with MDSC203.E Short Literature.
