Frontiers of Science is a course required of all Columbia College first-years. The course involves a weekly, one and a half hour lecture in Miller Theater on Mondays followed by a one hour and fifteen minute seminar led by different instructors. The subject matter covers contemporary scientific concepts leading up to the questions that the very scientists working in those fields are currently attempting to answer. These subjects include: Our Universe, Climate Change, Biodiversity, Neuro-Science. The course is rumored to terminate at the end of the Spring 2006 semester due to mass student complaints and complications with its integration into the Core Curriculum. The core curriculum was originally developed as the main curriculum used by Columbia Universitys Columbia College. ...
In Frontiers of Science, we are introducing to Columbia undergraduates the study of this new view, and the modes of thought that lead to it.
While science courses are currently required of all Columbia students, their scientific education is not governed by the central premises of the Core: the importance of a common, simultaneous experience; the value of interaction with the material in small seminars; and the significance of a focus on central intellectual themes.
Frontiers of Science introduces exciting ideas at the forefront of scientific research and develops the habits of mind characteristic of a scientific approach to the world.
ScienceFrontiers is the bimonthly newsletter providing digests of reports that describe scientific anomalies; that is, those observations and facts that challenge prevailing scientific paradigms.
In this context, the newsletter ScienceFrontiers is the appetizer and the Catalog of Anomalies is the main course.
ScienceFrontiers and the Catalog of Anomalies are produced by William R. Corliss.
