LIBS 450: Integrative Learning

Course Description

The value of interdisciplinary studies is the ability to cope with issues of contemporary urgency and global significance from multiple points of view. The purpose of this course is to address issues that are relevant to a student's field of study, and that can be investigated by applying knowledge from several disciplines. Each student will compose a rationale for their programs of study; will identify issues related to their chosen programs of study; will choose research a topic or issue. The several assignments of the course build up to the completion of a research project to investigate, analyze, evaluate and attempt to provide a solution for a complex issue. (F,W)
