12 010: Computational Methods of Scientific Programming
4.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Introduces programming languages and techniques used by physical scientists: FORTRAN, C, C++, MatLab, and Mathematica. Emphasis on program design, algorithm development and verification, and comparative advantages and disadvantages of different languages. Students first learn the basic usage of each language, common types of problems encountered, and techniques for solving a variety of problems encountered in contemporary research: examination of data with visualization techniques, numerical analysis, and methods of dissemination and verification. No prior programming experience is required.
Prerequisite:
Prereq: Calculus I (GIR), Calculus II (GIR), Physics I (GIR)

12 011J: Archaeological Science
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Pressing issues in archaeology as an anthropological science. Stresses the natural science and engineering methods archaeologists use to address these issues. Reconstructing time, space, and human ecologies provides one focus; materials technologies that transform natural materials to material culture provide another. Topics include 14C dating, ice core and palynological analysis, GIS and other remote sensing techniques for site location, soil micromorphology and site formation, sourcing of metal artifacts, and microstructural and mechanical analyses of cementitious materials used in ancient monumental buildings.

Prereq: Chemistry (GIR) or Physics I (GIR)

12 021: Earth Science, Energy, and the Environment
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Provides understanding of the Earth System most relevant to production of our planet's natural energy resources, including the physics, chemistry, and biology of conventional and alternative energy sources. Includes a broad overview of traditional and alternative energy sources: hydrocarbons (conventional and unconventional), nuclear, geothermal, hydroelectric, and wind and tides, along with their potentials and limitations. Develops detailed knowledge of the formation, concentration, and production of fossil and nuclear fuels, as well as the waste products associated with their consumption. An examination of conventional and alternative energy sources includes the environmental issues associated with the exploitation of these resources, both regional and global.

12 085: Seminar in Environmental Science
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Stresses integration of central scientific concepts in environmental science. Emphasis on identifying the scientific foundation of environmental problems and proposals for their solution. Through independent study, group discussions, and periodic research reports, students produce an in-depth overview and critique of selected problems. Potential topics include: carbon sequestration, nuclear waste disposal, ocean fertilization, geoengineering, global warming, ocean acidification, and the ecological impact of environmental change.

12 086: Modeling Environmental Complexity
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Introduction to mathematical and physical models of environmental processes. Emphasis on the development of macroscopic continuum or statistical descriptions of complex microscopic dynamics. Problems of interest include: random walks and statistical geometry of landscapes; percolation theory and transport in disordered media; fractals, scaling, and universality; ecological dynamics and the structure of ecosystems, food webs, and other natural networks; kinetics of biogeochemical cycles. Appropriate for advanced undergraduates. Beginning graduate students are encouraged to register for 12.586. Students taking the graduate version complete different assignments.
