These and other 1-credit IC2 mini-courses are:

* short courses that help you make connections between what you are studying in courses inside and outside your majors

* filled with activities and hands-on learning; no lectures

* lots of fun

* helpful in making learning more lasting and more useful in meeting complex real-world challenges

* one credit and graded pass/fail

Any three of the IC2 mini-courses count as a Humanities or Social Sciences perspective in any theme (starting in block 2 of Fall 2016; prior to that they counted in the World of Systems or the Inquiry, Imagination and Innovation themes).

 

Seats are also available in one other IC2 mini-course for Spring:
