about our courses Every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday you will attend two courses in the morning. Each course will meet for one-hour-and-fifteen-minutes. 300 level courses meet in the first period of the day [9:00am -10:15am]; 400 level courses meet in the second period of the day [10:40am -11:55am]. There is a 25-minute break between morning classes. Courses are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Class size, in most cases, is limited to 16 students. The registrar makes every effort to assign you to your first choices. However, in the event that a course is filled, you will be assigned to another one of your choices. On your application, you will select and rank your top 6 preferences for 300 level courses and your top 6 preferences for 400 level courses. 2008 intermediate program course listings The following courses are for the summer of 2008. business, law, + politics 301 401 Explo Entrepreneur — Creating a Business 302 402 The Apprentice Meets Madison Avenue — Advertising 303 403 I Object! — Mock Trial 304 404 Makin' Dough — Restaurant Management 305 On Capitol Hill — Model Congress 306 Shopping the Global Marketplace — World Economics 307 Spies + Lies — History of Espionage 405 Welcome to the World Stage — Model UN 406 Who is Dow Jones? — Economics + Ethics of the Stock Market 407 Slogans, Spin, + Swing Votes — Campaigns + Elections humanities, language, + social sciences 310 410 You Talkin’ To Me? — Debate 311 411 Reporting Live at the Scene — Broadcast Journalism 312 412 Pitching the Pilot — Writing for TV 313 413 Explo Unexplained — Unsolved Mysteries 314 414 English Cafe — English for Speakers of Other Languages 315 Mandarin Matters — Chinese Language + Culture 316 Lend Me Your Ears — Public Speaking 317 Write to the Point — Short Story Writing 318 You're Wrong, I'm Write — Opinion Writing + Media Studies 319 Where did Van Gogh? — History + Ethics of Art Theft 415 Konnichiwa! — Japanese Language + Culture 416 French Soirée — French Language + Culture 417 When in Rome. . . — Italian Language + Culture 418 Read All About It — Print Journalism 419 Sports Report — Sports + Society design, engineering, + math 320 420 Designing Your Dream House — Architecture 321 421 Go-Cart Madness — Go-Cart Design + Construction 322 422 ExploBotics — Robotics 323 423 Mansion Makeover — Interior Design 324 Blowing the Gaskets — Water Engineering 325 Your First Cup of Java — Intro to Java Programming 326 Destination: Mars! — Spacecraft Design + Engineering 424 Lasers, Dragons, Warriors, + Wizards — Role-Playing Game Design 425 All in the Numbers — Statistics, Probability, + Chaos 426 Fascination with Flight — Aeronautical Design + Engineering sciences 330 430 Cracking the Case — Forensics + Biochemistry 331 431 Bridges, Rockets, + Forces of Nature — Hands-On Physics 332 432 ExPlO2 — Chemistry 333 433 So, You Want to Be a Doctor? — Medical Careers 334 434 MythBusters — Scientific Inquiry + Investigation 335 Eco-logic — Ecology in the 21st Century 336 Outbreak! — Infectious Diseases + Epidemics 435 Breeding Beauty — Genetics + Selective Breeding 436 Cooking with Chemistry — Molecular Gastronomy visual arts 340 440 Move Over Tommy Hilfiger — Fashion (Re)Design 341 441 See It, Make It, Watch It — Video Production 342 442 Paint It Up — Painting + Color Theory 343 443 Shutterbug — Black + White Photography 344 The Lyin’, the Wig + the Wardrobe — Costume Design + Theatrical Make-Up 345 Manga, Marvel, + More — Comic Book Art 444 Pixel Productions — Digital Photography 445 Sketchers — Drawing 446 Trash or Treasure? — Found Object Art performing arts 350 450 Actors’ Workshop — Acting 351 451 Say Yes to Improv — Improvisation + Performance Art 352 452 School of Rock — Learning, Writing, + Playing Rock Music 353 453 Hip-Hop, Ya Don’t Stop — Hip-Hop Dance 354 Movin’ With Style — Modern Dance + Choreography 355 Havana Nights — Latin Dance 356 Give My Regards to Broadway — Musical Theatre 357 The Slam — Performance Poetry 454 Stomp!
