PHIL 38209: Psychoanalysis and Philosophy
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
PQ: Open to students who are majoring in philosophy with advanced standing. We work with Freud and Lacan, and pay special attention to questions about the status of the unconscious, the role of fantasy in lending shape to some aspects of life, material on the interpretation of dreams and on the senses in which questions about human life and normative authority inform neuroses. J. Lear, C. Vogler. Winter. ( A)

PHSC 10900: Ice-Age Earth
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
We examine the cause and effects of Earth's great ice ages, and use the knowledge so gained as a means to inform ourselves about the stability of Earth' s climate system and its relationship to the life of humankind. The ice age also serves as the starting point for the exploration o f Earth's history through deep time undertaken in PHSC 11000. The lab exercises deal with topographic maps that depict glacial landforms in various national parks such as Yosemite National Park in California and Glacier National Park in Montana. We also explore the glacial landforms in the Chicago vicinity through topographic maps and a day-long field trip. A day-long weekend field trip to ice-age sites is required. If a weekend date is not possible, the field trip will be run on the Wednesday prior to Thanksgiving recess. Students who register for this class must arrange to attend the field trip at one of the offered dates. D. Rowley. Not offered 2009 C10. L.

PHSC 10900-13400: Past and Future Climate of Earth
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
PQ: MATH 10600, or placement in MATH 13100 or higher. Open only to first- and second-year students and first-year transfer students. Taking these courses in sequence is not required. This sequence is recommended for students wishing to focus on global climate change. PHSC 10900 introduces the geological evidence for climate change in the past (i.e., the ice age); and PHSC 13400 examines the mechanisms of this climate change and introduces forecasts of future climate change associated with industrial and agricultural activity.

PHSC 11000: Environmental History of the Earth
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
Topics emphasize how geologic history has determined the physical and biological environments we experience on Earth today. In other words, we learn how the long-term processes of Earth history have shaped the surface and interior of the Earth, and have determined the diversity of life on the planet as seen both in the present day and in the fossil.

PHSC 11100: Foundations of Modern Physics I
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
This algebra-based course presents an introduction to Newton's laws of mechanics, including a study of planetary motion. The course also discusses wave motion as applied to sound and light. It concludes with an introduction to the special theory of relativity, in which the Newtonian concepts of space and time are reconsidered. Autumn. L.

PHSC 11200: Foundations of Modern Physics II
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
PQ: PHSC 11100. With the advent of quantum mechanics, physicists found a successful alternative to Newton's laws for explaining atomic phenomena. In doing so, a completely new philosophy concerning the laws of physics had to be adopted. In this course, we explore the basic tenets of quantum mechanics, and consider the quantization of energy, the indeterminacy of physical events, and other concepts unique to the quantum view of nature.

PHSC 11400: Development of Life on Earth
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
Starting with the big bang theory of the early universe, students study how the laws of physics guided the evolution of the universe through the processes most likely to have produced life on earth as it exists today. Physics topics include the fundamental interactions and the early universe; nuclear, atomic, and molecular structure; Newton's laws and the formation of stars, galaxies, and planetary systems; thermonuclear fusion in stars; the physical origin of the chemical elements; the laws of electricity and magnetism and electromagnetic radiation; the laws of thermodynamics; atmospheric physics; and physical processes on primordial earth.

PHSC 11400-11500: Life in the Universe
1.00 Credits
University of Chicago
PQ: MATH 10600, or placement into MATH 13100 or higher. Both offered in Summer Quarter, PHSC 11400 and 11500 are one-quarter courses that must be taken in sequence. This sequence treats our current understanding of the role that the laws of physics play in the development, existence, and persistence of life in the universe. The main goal of this sequence is for students to learn about these laws within the overarching context of this theme. The subject matter includes all the major branches of physics and certain aspects of cosmology, stellar evolution, and planetary science, as well as chemical and biological evolution. D. Reid.
