4 courses with the subject MBS, 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.
MBS 100-199 Scholars First-Year Seminar , or permission of the instructor. This is a half-unit course in which students complete an individually chosen academic project developed in stages over the term. Projects are self-designed and tailored to the student’s intellectual interests and passions. Students participate in monthly workshops, building core scholarship and information literacy skills used widely across disciplines (e.g., the ability to construct a literature review and annotated bibliography, analyze and integrate multiple sources of evidence, engage competing perspectives, etc).
MBS 100-199 Scholars First-Year Seminar and MBS 250 Foundations of Scholarship This is a one-unit course in which students engage in collaborative, interdisciplinary learning on the semester’s main theme, controversy, or topic. After jointly studying some foundational work in the seminar’s main subject area, students form integrative research teams and explore diverse sub-areas of the seminar’s theme. Teams lead discussions, complete a group project, and present their findings to other classmates.
