AISS001BLKS - Accelerated Integrated Science Sequence

This intensive, honors-level course sequence, co-taught by scientists from different disciplines, provides an integrative approach to the fundamentals of biology, chemistry, and physics. It is designed for first-year students with broad, interdisciplinary scientific interests and strong math backgrounds. The sequence will prepare students for entry into any majors offered by the Keck Science Department and provides an alternative to the standard six-course introductory curriculum (BIOL 043L KS-BIOL 044L KS, CHEM 014L KS-CHEM 015L KS, PHYS 033L KS-PHYS 034L KS). It will feature computer modeling, seminar discussions, lectures, interdisciplinary laboratories and hands-on activities. AISS 001ALKS and AISS001BLKS are designed to be taken concurrently (in the fall term), followed by AISS 002ALKS and AISS 002BLKS in the spring.
