science and mathematics 56-1224: Chemistry of Art and Color
3.00 Credits
Columbia College-Chicago
Course deals with atoms and molecules and how they create color or light and reflect and absorb light (dyes and pigments). Topics include additive and subtractive color mixing; interference, or iridescence, which is demonstrated through niobium anodizing; history and chemistry of pigments; and various paint media, including encaustic (or wax), egg tempura, linseed oil, gouache (or gum Arabic), fresco, calcium compounds, and oriental lacquers. The chemical reactions that set these paints are discussed. 4 CRED ITS

science and mathematics 56-1310: Geology:Earth as a Planet
3.00 Credits
Columbia College-Chicago
This course examines the basic scientific principles governing Earth and its operation. Through numerous hands-on activities, students study earth materials and how they form, surface processes and how they shape the land, and internal processes and how they lead to earthquakes, volcanic activity, and even movement of whole continents. Topics also include geologic time, the history of Earth and life on it, climate and climate change, and the impact of human activities on Earth. 4 CRED ITS

science and mathematics 56-1312: Global Change:Earth and Life in the Past,Present & Future
3.00 Credits
Columbia College-Chicago
This course examines the idea of global environmental change and the mechanisms by which global change occurs. We will use an approach combining Earth history with modern Earth processes (Earth systems) to understand changes in the physical environment like plate movement and climate change, and changes in the biological environment like evolution and extinction. Finally, we will analyze some of the relationships between physical and biological changes on Earth (physical mechanisms for extinction, biological inputs to climate change, and others). 3 CRED ITS

science and mathematics 56-1350: Evolving Vertebrates:Understanding Fossils and Paleontology
3.00 Credits
Columbia College-Chicago
Vertebrates have been around for more than 500 million years and are one of the most successful groups of organisms inhabiting the Earth today. This course explores the fossil evidence for the evolution and diversification of vertebrates, including fishes, crocodiles, dinosaurs, birds, and mammals. How vertebrate evolution is conveyed in scientific and popular literature, the arts, and museum exhibits will be examined in the context of the science and methods behind how fossils are discovered, collected, analyzed, reported, and displayed. 3 CRED ITS
