  • Human Rights and Business Ethics

    Do businesses have social responsibility? Understanding the law means understanding your place in the world—this is the core objective of this course.

    European and national legislation shape a model of entrepreneurship that is accountable to employees, citizens and other businesses. Fundamental human rights are safeguarded, ensuring that modern entrepreneurship has a social dimension. How can respect for equality and non-discrimination be ensured in everyday work life? Individual creativity requires a psychologically healthy environment to flourish – and this is a corporate responsibility. 

    Furthermore, through research, oral activities and an interdisciplinary approach, students will explore the legal commitments of businesses concerning environmental protection, consumer rights, and the maintenance of fair competition. Students will also become familiar with patterns of models of ethical and responsible social behavior – even in competitive environments. Developing legal thinking will help students construct and formulate thoughts and ideas, with a sense of responsibility and social awareness.

    Learning objectives

    • Acquisition of diverse knowledge and perspectives through speeches by professionals and academics.
    • Development of soft skills, including oral communication, critical thinking and problem solving, through the organization of a mock trial.
    • Enhancement of creativity, as knowledge is applied in individual and group projects, such as documentaries, posters, online/social media announcements, and article writing.

    Introduction to Biomedical Sciences

    Which organ has over 400 functions? Are there liquid tissues in the human body? What factors contribute to the development of cancer? Much like Leonardo da Vinci’s fascination with human anatomy, our course delves into these intriguing questions! Drawing upon fundamental biological and chemical concepts, students explore the intricate anatomical and physiological mechanisms that govern normal human function, as an introduction to human biology and the science of medicine. Students learn about the human body’s different systems, including the digestive, cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, excretory, nervous, endocrine, and immune systems, highlighting their interconnectedness. Laboratory activities encompass histology, anatomy and physiology (including dissections) and biochemistry techniques. Students also learn practical skills, such as suturing, and dive into group work, solving epidemiology mysteries and investigating the causes and cures for different diseases.

    Learning Objectives

    • Model the interrelatedness of three human body systems working together to maintain homeostasis. 
    • Demonstrate the skills and tools to complete scientific dissections.
    • Select, review and report on a disease or syndrome that impacts one human body system, including its causes, manifestation, symptoms and treatment methods. 

    Numbers: Zero to Infinity

    How can you calculate the height of my school? How can I design a map? How many ingredients will I need to make cookies for 7 people? Or maybe for 97? How tall is a person that is 5 feet tall? Students explore numbers, from the very small to the unimaginably large, and learn how numeric representations help to explain natural phenomena such as time, distance, and temperature.  Moving beyond traditional arithmetic, this course centers on hands-on activities that develop understanding of the scope and scale of numbers.

    Learning Objectives:

    • Explain, classify, and operate on different types of numbers, ranging from very small to very large numbers.
    • Solve problems and justify real-world solutions involving decimals, exponents, negative numbers, proportions, and ratios.
    • Utilize various measurement tools and techniques.
    • Apply strategies of rounding, estimating, and mental calculations to solve real-world problems.
    • Share and articulate ideas and solutions to problems, both written and orally, independently and in groups.

    Our Beautiful Mind

    Can cats actually see in the dark? Do snakes really smell with their tongues? What sense is associated most with memory? How do optical illusions “trick” the brain?

    During this course, students discover the 5 senses and explore the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system and the sensory organs. They’ll learn about sensory abilities that humans don’t have, like magnetoreception and sonar navigation, and discuss how the brain’s perception mechanisms turn sensory information into an organism’s experience of its surroundings.

    By employing the scientific method, students work together to answer fascinating questions related to sensation, perception, and the brain.

    Learning objectives:

    • Learn how physical and chemical signals from the environment are translated into neural impulses in the body.
    • Understand the use of models in biology and how these are like and unlike what they represent, and create biological models for the key parts of the sensory systems of the body.
    • Comprehend the journey of information through the body from the sensation of an external stimulus all the way to the perception of it in the brain.
    • Use the scientific method to investigate questions related to the body’s use of the five senses and design an experiment from beginning to end.

    Principles of Engineering Design

    What is the difference between science and engineering? What are the techniques that must be applied for successfully tackling any engineering challenge, from designing and building a bed-side table to conceptualizing and sending a shuttle to space? How can a group of engineers efficiently compartmentalize a multi-system project, allocate tasks and optimize the budget provided to solve a multifaceted constructional problem? This course explores a range of topics from physics and science and bridges the gap between pure theoretical knowledge and its practical application. Through daily doses of lectures, class discussions, problem-solving and plentiful hands-on lab activities, the students will be exposed to an array of concepts, varying from Newtonian dynamics and circuitry to fluid dynamics and thermal physics and through their application, complete engineering tasks of progressively increasing complexity. 

    Learning objectives:

    • Apply concepts from various topics of physics into practical constructional projects with strict requirements, aimed at tackling specific problems of varying complexity and constraints.
    • Train in the engineering design process, practical problem-solving and collaborative teamwork to complete assigned engineering design and production tasks. 
    • Develop and train a variety of technical skills, including detailed technical drawings of projects, precision soldering of electronic components and wood work skills.
