4.00 Credits
An introduction to the symbolism and methods of the logic of statements, including evaluation of arguments by truth tables, the techniques of natural deduction and semantic tableaux. Same as Philosophy 30. ( V)
-
4.00 Credits
Philosophical questions concerning the foundations of scientific inference, e.g., the traditional problem of induction, the Goodman paradox, the concept of cause, Mill's method of inductive reasoning, probability calculus, different interpretations of probability, and their interaction in inductive reasoning. Prerequisite: Logic and Philosophy of Science 30 or 104. Same as Philosophy 31. ( V)
-
4.00 Credits
Investigates the nature, scope, and status of scientific knowledge and the methods used to acquire it. Uses concrete historical examples from a variety of scientific fields to identify distinctive features of the scientific enterprise and explore their significance. ( II)
-
4.00 Credits
Explores two central themes: (1) using philosophical analysis to investigate the nature of the social sciences, and (2) using the social sciences themselves to study to nature of science. ( III) 4B Case Studies in Social Science (4). Introduces students to three case studies in three different social science areas in order to show how the social sciences are in fact practiced. ( III)
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the solution of engineering problems through the use of the computer. Elementary programming in FORTRAN and Matlab is taught. No previous knowledge of computer programming is assumed. Prerequisite or corequisite: Mathematics 2A. Only one course from Engineering MAE10, CEE10, ENGR10, EECS10, and EECS12 may be taken for credit. (Design units: 1)

-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the kinetics and dynamics of particles and rigid bodies. The Newton-Euler, Work/Energy, and Impulse/Momentum methods are explored for ascertaining the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies. An engineering design problem using these fundamental principles is also undertaken. Prerequisites: Mathematics 2D and Physics 7C. Same as ENGR80 and CEE80. (Design units: 0.5)
