    • Inside the Brain: Psychology Meets Medicine

    • In Person/On Campus

    How does the brain create thoughts, emotions, and behavior? What happens when it is injured or affected by illness?

    In this interdisciplinary course, students will explore the fascinating connection between neuroscience, psychology, and medicine. Through interactive activities, real clinical case studies, and hands-on experiments, participants will learn how brain structure and biology influence memory, decision-making, personality, and mental health.

    The course also introduces modern medical technologies and ethical questions shaping the future of brain science.

    Introduction to Biomedical Sciences

    • In Person/On Campus

    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.

    Mathematical Modeling

    • In Person/On Campus

    Mathematics is more than just numbers and symbols on a page. Applications of mathematics are indispensable in the modern world. Math can be used to determine whether a meteor will impact Earth, predict the spread of an infectious disease, or analyze a remarkably close presidential election. In this course, students create and evaluate mathematical models to represent and solve problems across a broad range of disciplines, including political science, economics, biology, and physics.

    Students begin with a review of some of the core mathematical tools in modeling, such as linear functions, lines of best fit, and exponential and logarithmic functions. Using these tools, students examine models such as those used in population growth and decay, voting systems, or the motion of a spring. Students also learn how to use Euler and Hamilton circuits to find the optimal solutions in a variety of real-world situations, such as determining the most efficient way to schedule airline travel. A introduction to probability and statistics lead into a study of using deterministic versus stochastic models to predict the spread of an epidemic and explore classic mathematical problems such as the traveling salesman problem, birthday paradox, and light switching problem.  Students are introduced to logic proofs by induction and contradiction.  Students leave this course familiar with all steps of the modeling process, from defining the problem and making assumptions, to assessing the model for strengths and weaknesses.

    Mathematical Secrets of Shapes and Colors

    • In Person/On Campus

    Mathematics is everywhere around us—even where we least expect it! In this course, students explore the connection between mathematics and art, discovering how mathematical thinking is reflected in artistic expression across different historical periods. Through the study of colorful paintings by renowned artists and the geometry and aesthetics of ancient Greek pottery, children are introduced to key mathematical concepts in a meaningful and engaging context.

    Students participate in hands-on, creative activities that involve shapes, patterns, symmetry, proportions, and color relationships. They analyze selected works of art to identify the underlying mathematical structures that organize them and then apply these concepts by creating their own artistic compositions.

    The goal of the course is to help students understand that mathematics extends beyond numbers and calculations: it is a creative and culturally rich way of thinking that supports problem-solving, visual literacy, and artistic expression, while fostering an appreciation for beauty, imagination, and cultural heritage.

    Mystery Lab: Science Detectives

    Follow the clues. Use science. Solve the mystery.

    An unknown trace, a hidden message, a mysterious sample… and a case waiting to be solved!

    In Mystery Lab: Science Detectives, students become investigators and discover how science can help them unravel a mystery. Through experiments, careful observation, and exciting missions, they collect and analyze evidence, develop and test hypotheses, and combine ideas from biology, chemistry, physics, and logic.

    Can they separate real evidence from misleading clues and solve the case?

    At the Mystery Lab, every clue counts — and asking the right questions might just lead to the truth!

    Nanotechnology: Billionths at Work!

    • In Person/On Campus

    So small yet so powerful … We cannot see it, but it can change our everyday life! “Nano” indicates something small, something minute, about a billion times less than a meter. In these dimensions materials can go ‘crazy’ and display unique, unprecedented properties. How does the size of a material affect its properties? How do some plants manage to repel water and clean themselves? How can I make my clothes stain resistant? How does the gecko lizard walk on the ceiling? How can a robot climb onto a glass window? How do all this relate to bio-mimicry and everyday life?

    Nanotechnology is linked to many disciplines, such as physics, biology, chemistry and mathematics, to produce useful applications with innovative properties. Through a series of approaches, including problem-solving, designing and conducting experiments, games, studying natural and artificial nanomaterials, searching for information, modeling, and group activities, students are introduced to the exciting world of science and technology at a nanoscale!
