This course is designed to explore three aspects of the environment: the interacting components of the environment apart from humans, the impact of humans and contemporary cultures on the environment, and local pollution problems and possible solutions. This Honors course fosters high-achieving students' growth towards learning outcomes such as: problem solving, often with creative approaches; critical reading or original data analysis; forming judgments based on evidence, often from integrative learning; clear, persuasive research writing; oral presentation; and articulate reflection on personal growth. Honors courses are more likely to utilize student-driven active learning, emphasizing exploration and discovery, rather than the acquisition of specific knowledge; faculty might provide projects with no pre-determined conclusion, but with real-world application. 77

Food Science integrates an interdisciplinary scientific approach to food and its components. Relationships between the chemical composition of food and sensory properties are delineated. In this course students evaluate the effects of processing, preparation, and storage on the quality, safety, and nutritive value of various food categories. Further, this course examines the application of technology to both improve and expand the food supply. Food science applies concepts from nutrition, health, biology, and chemistry to discern how the various ingredients in foods interact. Laboratory testing and food science techniques specific to the science of food are explored. Prerequisites: ENG 010A - Basic Writing or ENG 011 - Basic Writing II or ESL 011 - Basic Writing II REA 011 - Fundamentals of College Reading or REA 017 - Vocabulary and Reading
