Course Description
Plants are responsible for turning the energy of the sun into biomass - so they underpin life on earth. You know plants do this via photosynthesis, but how did photosynthesis evolve? And how is it still evolving, both in nature and in labs around the world? How do you end up getting a whole plant with all the structures such as flowers and branches from a single cell? How do the cells know what structure to form and when to form these structures? How can we understand the molecular basis of these processes? Plant development and cell biology is the discipline in which one learns about how the genetic programming of a cell links to cell biology and ultimately to the development of the whole plant. Applying this knowledge to plant crops is one of the central goals of plant biotechnology where it seeks to increase crop yields and adaptation of crops to particular environments. This course also covers molecular aspects of plant biology including next generation sequencing, understanding the roles of epigenetic regulation and polyploidy in plant evolution, and implications for plant improvement.

Course Description
This course explores the techniques involved in music creation and production using digital audio workstations and mobile and online applications. Students investigate how computers, tablets, and mobile technologies can be used as tools for creative music making. The course provides a practical understanding of the capabilities and limits of computer-based music technology. Students also gain a basic theoretical background to the nature of music and organized sound through experimentation with technologies which enable sound to be recorded, sampled, and programmed. Topics covered include music studio setups and workflows, audio recording, multi-track mixing, MIDI sequencing, virtual instruments, and sound design. This course employs a "flipped" course model consisting of weekly laboratory sessions and online content in place of traditional lectures.
