  • ENGL 29809 /39809: Honors Seminar:Poetry

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Consent of instructor. Enrollment preference given to fourth-year majors writing honors theses in creative writing, but open to all qualified students if space permits. This course focuses on ways to organize larger poetic "projects" (e.g., poetic sequence, chapbook, long poem, poetry collection, book-length poem). We also problematize the notion of broad poetic "projects," considering the consequences of imposing a predetermined conceptual framework on the elusive, spontaneous, and subversive act of lyric writing. The work of students is the primary te xt. Winte

  • ENGL 29816: Honors Seminar:Fiction

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Consent of instructor. This advanced fiction course focuses on the extended development necessary for the completion of longer material, specifically the creative thesis. Students should already have a body of work in process (this can be in different stages) and be prepared to discuss their plans for their final manuscript in lieu of a formal proposal. The workshop format gives maximum feedback and greater understanding of audience in writing. Winter.

  • ENST 11101-11200-11301: General Chemistry I,II,III

    0.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: Good performance on the mathematics or calculus placement test. The first two courses in this sequence meet the general education requirement in the physical sciences. Variants A and B are equivalent in the first and second quarters but differ in focus in the third quarter as detailed below. Both three-quarter sequences cover atomic and molecular theories, chemical periodicity, chemical reactivity and bonding, chemical equilibria, acid-base equilibria, solubility equilibria, phase equilibria, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, kinetics, and nuclear chemistry. Examples are drawn from chemical, biological, and material systems. The laboratory portion includes an introduction to quantitative measurements, investigation of the properties of the important elements and their compounds, and experiments associated with the common ions and their separation and identification.

  • ENST 12100: Chemistry and the Atmosphere

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: MATH 10600, or placement in MATH 13100 or higher. This course focuses on aspects of chemistry as they apply to the Earth's atmosphere. The first half considers atmospheric structure and fundamental chemical principles, while the second half presents examples of chemical systems that operate in the atmosphere. Topics include the chemical composition of the atmosphere, the structure of atoms and molecules, the nature of chemical reactions, the interaction of solar radiation with atmospheric gases, the properties of the water molecule, formation of an ozone layer, and the chemistry of urban air pollution.

  • ENST 12300: Global Warming:Understanding the Forecast

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: MATH 10600, or placement into 13100 or higher, or consent of instructor required; some knowledge of chemistry or physics helpful. This course presents the science behind the forecast of global warming to enable the student to evaluate the likelihood and potential severity of anthropogenic climate change in the coming centuries. It includes an overview of the physics of the greenhouse effect, including comparisons with Venus and Mars; an overview of the carbon cycle in its role as a global thermostat; predictions and reliability of climate model forecasts of the greenhouse world; and an examination of the records of recent and past climates, such as the glacial world and Eocene and Oligocene warm periods.

  • ENST 12404: Environmental Ecology

    3.00 Credits
    University of Chicago

    PQ: BIOS 10110 or BIOS 10130. This course emphasizes basic scientific understanding of ecological principles that relate most closely to the ways humans interact with their environments. It includes lectures on the main environmental pressures, notably human population growth, disease, pollution, climate change, habitat destruction, and harvesting. We emphasize the ongoing impacts on the natural world, particularly causes of population regulation and extinction and how they might feed back on to humans. T. Price. Spring.
