Interdisciplinary Elective Courses Interdisciplinary courses are special electives in which the course content combines topics and issues from two or more traditional areas of study. These courses may be used for core elective graduation credit but do not meet graduation requirements in a specific subject area. IE306 Forensic Science One trimester Credit: One unit core elective credit. Prerequisite: Completion of one course in either biology or chemistry, concurrent enrollment in the other and completion of algebra. Meeting pattern: Four periods per week including lab. This one trimester course is designed to give NCSSM students an introduction and broad overview of forensic science. This course focuses on crime scene investigation, including evidence collection, processing a scene, and lab techniques used to decipher and incriminate the wrongdoer. Through lab work, field trips, demonstrations by experts, and guest speakers, students explore major areas of forensic science: fingerprinting, blood typing, shoe and tire impressions, 88
identification of hair, fibers and glass fragments, DNA; application of force and motion from blood splatters and tire skids; and forensic anthropology (the study of bone structures and features). IE308 Explorations in Mentorship One trimester Credit: One unit additional elective credit. Prerequisite: Third-trimester junior intending to register for IE405 Mentorship-Senior Research in senior year and selection by the Mentorship Coordinator based on Mentorship Application process. Meeting pattern: Two periods per week. Mentorship Explorations is for NCSSM junior students interested in doing offcampus research with a mentor during the senior year. This course serves as an introduction to the mentorship experience in research and serves to develop skills needed for the mentorship. Students learn scientific methodologies, experimental design, and basic data analysis. Technical writing skills are also a major focus. Throughout the course, students read from the primary scientific literature and participate in discussion groups on current issues in research. As they explore potential research areas, students begin a portfolio of readings that relate to their particular area of mentorship interest. Students assist in the location of a mentor for the senior year. IE309a/IE309b Introduction to Entrepreneurship Two trimesters Credit: Two units core elective credit. Prerequisite: Permission of the Academic Programs Office. Meeting pattern: One 2-hour evening class meeting. Students receive a broad understanding of the field of entrepreneurship and are introduced to the important tools and skills necessary to create and grow a successful new venture. The course simulates the real life activities of entrepreneurs in the start-up stage of a new venture. Students, in teams, evaluate a new venture concept and determine if a demand exists for their product or service. Importantly, the course introduces students to successful entrepreneurs to learn from their process and errors as well as their successes.
