HONR 101 - Honors:Scientific Investigations


Fullfils CORE.101 requirement 
This interdisciplinary course explores important issues of societal and personal relevance by evaluating testable ideas through experimentation
and literature-based research in lecture and laboratory settings. Students will use the process of science to generate data and
synthesize new ideas to come to evidence-based conclusions that will illuminate responses to the three core questions: Who am I, What can I know, and given what I know, how should I act? Lecture content will vary across sections to reflect the expertise of instructors from the breadth of scientific disciplines including astronomy,
biology, chemistry, environmental science, geology, oceanography, physics, public health, and sustainability studies, among others. The laboratory experience complements the lecture by providing students with hands-on opportunities to use the scientific method as they lead their own research investigations.
