4.00 Credits
General principles underlying tonal musical organization. Students learn concepts of 18th- and 19th-century harmonic, formal, and contrapuntal practices. Weekly lab sections are devoted to skills in musicianship and are required throughout the sequence.
-
4.00 Credits
The continuation of MUSIC-UA 201, 202 covers chromatic extensions of tonality, intensive analysis of representative works from the tonal literature, and more advanced contrapuntal practices of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Course that provides students with broad exposure to current questions and experimental approaches in cellular neuroscience. Lectures and laboratories are organized into three areas: cell structure and organization of the vertebrate central nervous system, mechanisms underlying neural signaling and plasticity, and control of cell form and its developmental determinants. Laboratory instruction in anatomical, physiological, and biochemical methods for investigating the biology of nerve cells is offered. Note: Neural science majors on the honors track must register for both the lecture and the laboratory (4 and 2 points, respectively), but these need not be taken synchronously; nonmajors and non-honors-track students may only register for the lab section with permission of the instructor. A grade of B or better in Introduction to Neural Science (NEURL-UA 100) is required for entrance to the laboratory section. Registration is controlled for all students and requires approved access by the director of undergraduate studies and departmental authorization for enrollment.
