  • SCI 2715: SRI Research

    1.00 - 4.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    This course offers undergraduate students the opportunity to deeply engage in the scientific process while gaining essential skills, including observation, written and oral communication, critical thinking, and problem-solving, in a collaborative environment. Students will develop these skills through cohort-based research experiences (Research Streams) as part of the Science Research Initiative. Each research Stream will be supervised by a faculty mentor from the College of Science. Students will be working on an independent project- the degree to which the student conceptualizes and designs that project is largely up to the mentor. The specific laboratory skills and disciplinary knowledge learned while carrying out research will vary depending on the focus of the research project. In addition to acquiring research Stream specific disciplinary expertise, participation will generally develop skills for reviewing scientific literature, data collection and data analyses, and scientific communication. Recommended Prerequisites: SCI 1500.

  • SCI 3735: IP Law for Scientists

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    introduction to the US law of intellectual property (IP), with focus on main instruments of IP protection: patents, trademarks, and copyright. After completion of this course, students will be able to understandthe objectives of the system of IP protection and how this system emerges from the tension between providing sufficient incentives to creative thinkers/artists/inventors and limiting the freedom of expression too much. The course explains what can and cannot be protected, how protections can be obtained and asserted, how one can practice one's creative endeavors while maximizing benefits provided by the system of IP law and being cognizant of the rights of other marketplace participants. The course also touches on modern emerging issues related to information technology and biotechnology.

  • SCI 3900: Being Human in STEM

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    The goal of the Being Human in STEM class is to create a space for dialogue between STEM students and STEM faculty to investigate together the theme of diversity and climate within STEM. The course combines academic inquiry and individual stories to understand how students' identities shape their experience in STEM. The course has two components that are intertwined throughout the semester: 1) Reading and discussion: during one of the two weekly class meetings, we ground our understanding through critical reading of primary scholarly research as well as media sources (e.g. podcasts, films); occasionally we'll welcome guests to enrich and inform our discussions. Example topics include implicit bias, stereotype threat, imposter syndrome, antiracism, intersectionality, as well as the role in STEM of gender, race, LGBTQIA+ identity, dis/ability, and many others. 2) Project development: the other weekly class meeting is devoted to the design, execution, and evaluation of interventions led by the students with the goal of improving the experience of STEM students at the U. At the end of the semester, students present their group projects to the campus community via a public event. This course is aimed at students across STEM fields and pre-medical students. Students who don't have major status but are interested in the course may be approved upon the instructor's consent. Find out more about the class on the website: https://csme.utah.edu/beinghumaninstem/ The course is part of a national initiative. Learn more at: http://www.beinghumaninstem.com/
