    • 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.

    Numbers: Zero to Infinity

    • In Person/On Campus

    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.

    Probability and Game Theory

    • In Person/On Campus

    Game theory
    What do a prime minister, a general, an athlete, a lawyer, a businessman, a psychologist, a spouse and a biologist have in common? Game Theory deals with the study of the behavior of rational beings (those who decide and act on the basis of their logic and “interest”), in situations where they compete or cooperate with others.  Therefore, all of us are faced daily with difficult problems that are at the core of Game Theory, which in conjunction with Mathematics, is indispensable in the understanding of social sciences, including economics, sociology, environmental studies, and psychology.

    Probability
    Uncertainty is prevalent in our lives. Everyday questions, such as what’s the weather going to be this weekend and whether it’s worth playing a game of chance, or larger-scale questions like how the global climate changes, and how an epidemic develops, or even more exotic ones, such as what is the possibility of life on other planets or the risk of the earth being hit by a celestial body, cannot be answered with complete certainty. Through mathematics and probability theory we can study uncertainty and analyze these situations. 

    In this course, we deal with the fundamental concepts of theory and harness its power to study games between people, companies, states and other entities when faced with situations of uncertainty. Students play games, study and analyze them and are led to the most innovative scientific ideas, to make strategic decisions, thereby increasing their profit and/or reducing their damage!

    Learning Objectives

    • Review and apply the fundamentals of probability to solve mathematical problems, develop an understanding of the theoretical foundations for fundamental models in game theory and model certain types of human behavior in competitive decision-making situations.
    • Examine and find the balance (solution) in zero-sum, non-zero sum, signaling, cooperative games, simultaneous and sequential games and utilize real-life and computer simulations to test theories and justify conclusions.
    • Share ideas and solutions to problems, both written and orally through individual exercises and collaborative projects or tournaments.

    United Nations and Advanced Geography: Reshape the World

    • In Person/On Campus

    The defense of human rights, the response to humanitarian crises, the protection of the environment, and the provision of humanitarian aid are some of the issues that concern and are managed by the United Nations. In this course students get to know and understand through short lectures, various readings, discussions, experiential activities and research how the natural, economic, cultural and political characteristics of each country influence and shape policy-making at a global level.

    In addition, they practice their speaking and writing, develop their critical thinking and broaden their knowledge of geography and international relations.

    Students also learn about the role of ambassadors at the United Nations, as they take part in simulated meetings, exploring a specific country and determining its position on global issues that come before the Organization. Finally, they draft position papers and resolutions with an in-depth understanding of diplomatic negotiations.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

    • Understand the geographic factors that influence international relations and political decisions at the global level.
    • Study the structure, operation and role of the United Nations and other international organizations in dealing with global challenges.
    • Understand the importance of international cooperation and diplomacy in solving global issues such as climate change, humanitarian aid and peace and security.
