Pollution Prevention
An interdisciplinary course that
draws upon material from chemical,
electrical, environmental and mechanical
engineering disciplines. This
course reviews regulations and
explores the tools used to set up and
maintain pollution prevention programs.
Topics include process assessments;
defining and ranking pollution
prevention options; feasibility analyses
including technical, environmental,
and economic aspects; and life
cycle analysis. (3-0-3)

humanities course. (3-0-3) (H) (C)
HIST 307
History of Latin American Cinema
An overview of the historical development
of Latin American film, from
early to contemporary films, along
with a study of the methods of critical
inquiry developed to analyze film
and cultural and political history in
Latin America. This course provides
differing visions of Latin America
history as constructed through film.
We analyze some of the major films
of Latin American cinema with a
view to the characteristic marks of
this cinema, its aesthetic, major
themes, the various ways that it
impacts political, social and cultural
systems and how social-political
changes in turn impact the production
and politics of film. Films will be in
Spanish and English subtitles.
