HSTY 285: Psychedelics in History

A global exploration of psychedelic drugs, which have been revered, idealized, vilified, banned, and revived, HSTY 285 will look at their use in contexts ranging from indigenous Native American and African cultures, CIA explorations of “mind control,” 20^th century psychotherapy, the 1960s counter-culture, and the current “psychedelic renaissance. How has historical context influenced the experience of these powerful substances? How have they in turn influenced historical context? We will explore ritual, medicinal, and recreational uses of psychedelics, but will also see how those categories can overlap.

ENGR 131: Elementary Computer Programming

Students will learn the fundamentals of computer programming and algorithmic problem solving. Concepts are illustrated using a wide range of examples from engineering, science, and other disciplines. Students learn how to create, debug, and test computer programs, and how to develop algorithmic solution to problems and write programs that implement those solutions. Matlab is the primary programming language used in this course, but other languages may be introduced or used throughout.
