CHEM 0838 - Nature Has No Reverse

This course is not offered every year.

Rapid advances in modern science often tend to conceal the "forest in the trees," but we all need enough familiarity with the "scientific method" to make informed judgments as citizens and voters. This course will take you on a journey through the history of science, with stops at the Second Law of Thermodynamics, the "revolution" of fire, the rational basis of life, energy as the universal currency and changes in the universe around us. We will end with that most disturbing of paradoxes: the certainty of uncertainty. Each week includes both lecture and hands-on demonstration/practicum. NOTE: This course fulfills a Science & Technology (GS) requirement for students under GenEd and the Science & Technology Second Level (SB) requirement for students under Core.
