Session Cycle: Spring Yearly Cycle: Annual This courseguides students to integrate the scientific and business aspects of their Bryant education. Under the supervision of the course instructor and other professionals from the biotechnology industry, students working in small groups will simulate the founding and management of the first ten years of a new biotechnology company. The simulation reflects the unique problems and challenges for biotechnology entrepreneurs and managers in evaluating the commercial potential of research ideas, marketing and business planning, financing, overcoming regulatory hurdles, consumer psychology, and ethical considerations. Students will make formal presentations on these subjects throughout the term as they build their companies.

Session Cycle: Fall Yearly Cycle: Annual Complex systems are characterized by a large number of locally-interacting parts which exhibit behavior qualitatively different than the individual parts. Such systems are best explored numerically, because anaytical solutions are often lacking. In this course students will explore many such systems, from meteorology and climate, to ecology, economic, and neural systems. In the global environment, there is a growing need for the understanding of complex systems at the border between order and chaos, in contexts of environment and society. Modeling exercises will be integrated throughout the course to reinforce lecture topics. Prerequisite: At least one science course or permission of instructor and junior standing. 3.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Division Science and Technology Department Course Attributes: Environmental Science Minor, Environmental Science Major, Liberal Arts Elective, Scientific Mode of Thought
