ENGL 1102 – Energy & the Environment in the Humanities, 3 credit hours 

Humanistic research has deepened global conversations about energy usage and environmental issues in the contemporary world. The environmental humanities study narratives of complex relationships between human beings and the environment, including the impact of unchecked energy consumption on the global climate as well as vulnerable indigenous communities. Besides analyzing environmental literature and media that employ a range of rhetorical strategies, students in this course will compose digital projects to convey their own arguments regarding contemporary environmental debates. Students in this course will develop advanced skills in WOVEN communication (Written, Oral, Visual, Electronic, and Nonverbal), in the process of communicating complex ideas regarding social justice and environmental ethics. While learning the principles of persuasive writing, visual rhetoric, and document design, students will compose multimodal artefacts such as, electronic essay, web exhibit, and digital posters. Scaffolding activities occurring in the classroom and online forums will promote active learning, collaborative work, and process-oriented composition. Students should expect to engage in activities like active classroom discussions, group presentations, peer review sessions, and collaborative digital scholarship projects. Course materials may include Tayeb Salih’s short story “The Doum Tree of Wad Hamid” (1962), Linda Hogan’s Solar Storms (1995), Arundhati Roy’s essay, “For the Greater Common Good” (1999), and Christopher McLeod’s documentary film Standing on Sacred Ground (2013). This course satisfies a humanities requirement.

ENGL 1102 – Science, Art, & Justice, 3 credit hours 

Everything is political, from science to art. In an era of climate change, protests for racial justice, and rising inequality, it is more important than ever to understand the relationship between science and art in effecting public opinion. This course will explore, briefly, the relationship between science and art in a few moments of modern human history—slavery, colonization, industrialization, the development of fossil fuels, the development of nuclear power, and climate change. The course aims to show that science and art can work together, but have been at odds in the past or even collectively wrong. The first half of the course will survey a few moments from the 19th century and conclude with historical research on the interplay of art and science. The second half of the course will focus on the 20th century and involve a team project where students will describe the relationship between art and science today. As a Serve-Learn-Sustain affiliated course, this class will identify relationships among ecological, social, and economic systems, with an especially focus on communities and environmental justice. Through all this the class will highlight the forms of WOVEN (written, oral, visual, electronic, and nonverbal) communication as we consider how to connect science and art in the 21st century. In order to develop and deploy rhetorical knowledge students will compose and design research papers, oral presentations, and websites. Other graded elements will include project brainstorms, outlines, peer review, and shorter reflections. Ultimately, the course will provide students with opportunities to discuss, practice, and reflect on rhetoric alongside the tools to critique the relationships between science, art, and justice. This course meets a humanities requirement.

MGT 4803- Special Topics (Social Impact: In-Depth Exploration and Design), 3 credit hours  

This course is for students who are passionate about social (and/or environmental) issues, and have identified an interest area where they want to make real change by developing an innovative solution.  The course will serve as a guide in the students' problem solving journey by exploring topics like: human-centered design, social impact assessment, customer discovery, sustainable communities, and more.  Students will connect with area experts who will serve as mentors and provide feedback throughout the semester.  Much of the course will be conducted "workshop style" with guest speakers presenting on topics that will help teams with their project's development.  There will also be plenty of opportunity for peer learning where students can share their feedback and advise with classmates.  The end goal is to have a project ready for entry in the Ideas to Serve Competition - Tech's social innovation event - to compete for up to $10K in start-up funds.  The course is also under consideration for the Leadership Minor and the Entrepreneurship Certificate.  This course is ideal for students who already have an idea for a solution to a social problem and need guidance and resources to move from idea to action.  If you do not have a specific idea already, you can team up with someone in the class who does.  Everyone with a passion for improving the human condition is welcome!
