SCI 100 - Sino-Amer Exch for Environmental Ldrshp
Students study regional natural history and,natural resource management in a three week summer,residential field program based at Champlain,College. Each American student is required to,investigate specific and current hot topics in,environmental policy with a Chinese student.,Prior to the field program, students will develop,a review paper addressing the complexity of the,topic that they have selected. During the,program, they will have an opportunity to visit,sites and meet with professionals directly,associated with their topic. Students will have,access to technology to continue research on the,Champlain campus. At the close of the program,,American and Chinese students will co-author a,position statement and offer a public presentation,of their findings on campus. Effective student,papers will be published in Green Across the,Pacific’s annual magazine and distributed to,policy makers and the general public to further,meaningful debate about regional natural resource,management and sustainability. This independent,,student-driven work will be embedded in the,context of a broad overview of the region’s,natural history, economy and politics. Sharing,this work with Chinese students will broaden the,perspective and world view of all participants.

SCI 130 - General Chemistry I
This course develops chemistry concepts in the greater framework of societal and technological issues, such as pollution and energy resources. As a student, you will have at your disposal a variety of information sources (textbook, web resources) to sharpen your observation techniques and to help you understand the many chemical and physical laws behind the technologies you will consider. Both class discussion and laboratory experimentation are designed to help you learn apply, and experience chemistry as a practical science that is relevant to everyday life. Topics studied include air and water pollution, global warming, and acid rain. These topics will each underscore a more classical chemistry topic such as the periodic table, the makeup and behavior of atoms and molecules, chemical bonding, chemical equations, and stoichiometry, chemical reactions and changes of state. Course includes two laboratory hours per week.

SCI 250 - Physics I
This physics course is an algebra based investigation of classical Newtonian mechanics. As almost everything we encounter or do on a daily basis involves physics, whether it is obvious or not, this course is particularly useful for any future career. Many of the examples studied are very practical, and theory is used as an adjunct to the real-world problems investigated. Topics include measurement and error, vector quantities translational and rotational motion, Newton?s laws, work energy and power, and properties of materials. Laboratory sessions are designed to re-enforce material presented in class as well as introduce students to laboratory procedures and the scientific method. In addition to Newtonian mechanics, we will investigate basic electronics and robotics and their connection to physics
