An emerging approach to enhancing participation, building awareness and influencing behaviour is the use of 3D landscape visualization to depict past and future scenarios. This course will examine forms of climate change visualization that integrates analytical capabilities of GIS-based software with emotionally-rich and intuitive media and how they are utilized in climate change impact assessment and decision making. Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory per week. 09-09-2024-02-12-2024 Lecture Monday 09:00AM - 11:50AM, Climate Change & Adaptation, Room 120

Centered around an author or a topic, this course is specifically designed to enable students to express themselves and to do research on their own. Students will be given topics to research and to present to the class. (See Academic Regulation 9 for Regulations Governing Directed Studies.). 04-09-2024-05-12-2024 Seminar Days to be Announced, Times to be Announced, Room to be Announced

This course will provide students with an applied learning experience on the fundamentals of exercise techniques, program design for resistance training, and administration of maximal strength testing. Theoretical concepts such as the musculoskeletal system, exercise selection, injury prevention, and periodization, as well as muscle adaptations, and age- and sex-related differences will be addressed. Lecture: 2 hours per week Lab: 1 hour per week Three semester hours of credit. 04-09-2024-04-12-2024 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 01:30PM - 02:20PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 213

This course introduces students to the genre of science fiction. Looking at literature from a variety of historical periods, students explore how science fiction responds to the cultural contexts out of which it arises. Possible topics include space/time travel, alternative histories, artificial intelligence, the relationship between technology and morality, and utopias and dystopias. 04-09-2024-04-12-2024 Lecture Monday, Wednesday, Friday 10:30AM - 11:20AM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 211

This course places emphasis on the physical relationships among anatomic structures. Teaching materials provide a learning aid for students to better understand anatomy in sectional images. Students learn to recognize and identify cross-sectional anatomy that is needed for technology advances in diagnostic imaging. LECTURES/LABORATORIES: 3 hours. 04-09-2024-05-12-2024 Work Integrated Learning Days to be Announced, Times to be Announced, Room to be Announced

Seminar. 06-09-2024-29-11-2024 Graduate Studies Friday 12:30PM - 01:20PM, Duffy Science Ctr, Room 204

Weekly seminars on a broad array of topics in the Mathematical and Computational Sciences, as well as instructional seminars on writing and presentation skills. Students are required to give semi-annual progress reports on their research project. Students are also required to research and present a seminar on a topic within their discipline, but unrelated to their own research project. Students are expected to participate in question-and-answer sessions that follow, and contribute to the general discourse. Students must register for this course each semester and receive a grade of "In Progress" until completion of their MSc program. 09-09-2024-02-12-2024 Graduate Studies Monday 01:30PM - 02:20PM, Cass Science Hall, Room 101

This course examines how the more basic senses work and how they contribute to our awareness of the world. The sense of touch seems to give us direct contact with the world. The abilities to sense chemicals in the food we eat and the air we breathe guide not only what we eat but also our emotions. Sensing vibrations in air enables us to detect events out of sight and to receive both verbal and musical communications from others. Content covered in this course also considers principles and theories of how visual information is received, and how it is processed and combined to produce visual images. These vastly different sources of information-mechanical, chemical and gravitational, as well as the electromagnetic basis of vision are sensed by specialized biological receptors that transform the information into nerve impulses. This course examines how the principles used by the brain to interpret the diverse information are surprisingly similar. NOTE: Credit will not be allowed for PSY-2600 if a student has already recevied credit for PSY-2610 or PSY-2620. 05-09-2024-05-12-2024 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, Duffy Science Ctr, Room 135

This course exploresthe works of Shakespeare by comparing filmed performances and performance history of a selection of his plays, such as Hamlet, Much Ado about nothing, and Henry V. 05-09-2024-05-12-2024 Lecture Tuesday, Thursday 01:00PM - 02:15PM, McDougall Hall, Room 242
