The common aim of the courses in Science is to explore the phenomena, ways of observing and understanding them, theories that synthesize them, and the undergirding methodology that, taken together, result in the scientific perception of our world.
Courses in this section, emphasizing biological, evolutionary, and environmental science, present semiquantitative and frequently descriptive accounts of complex systems that cannot yet be fully analyzed on the basis of their simple elements.
Micro- and nanostructures are the basis both of fundamentally new science, and of ubiquitous technologies: quantum dots, computers, the biological nanomotors that power muscle, buckyballs, tools for examining single mammalian cells, lasers.
