ENGR 55: Foundational Biology for Engineers (CHEMENG 55)

Biology, physics, and chemistry are the substrates for the modern engineer. Whether you are interested in developing the next generation of medicines or would like the next material or catalyst you design to be inspired by solutions found in Nature, this course will deepen your knowledge of the foundational concepts in biology and enrich your engineering skills. We will introduce the physical principles that underlie the construction and function of living cells, the fundamental building block of life. Emphasis will be on systems, logic, quantitation, and mechanisms of the molecular processes utilized by all life on Earth. This course has no prerequisites, but prior completion of CHEM 31 or equivalent is highly recommended.

ENGR 65: Modern Physics for Engineers (EE 65)

This course introduces the core ideas of modern physics that enable applications ranging from solar energy and efficient lighting to the modern electronic and optical devices and nanotechnologies that sense, process, store, communicate and display all our information. Though the ideas have broad impact, the course is widely accessible to engineering and science students with only basic linear algebra and calculus through simple ordinary differential equations as mathematics background. Topics include the quantum mechanics of electrons and photons (Schr¿dinger's equation, atoms, electrons, energy levels and energy bands; absorption and emission of photons; quantum confinement in nanostructures), the statistical mechanics of particles (entropy, the Boltzmann factor, thermal distributions), the thermodynamics of light (thermal radiation, limits to light concentration, spontaneous and stimulated emission), and the physics of information (Maxwell's demon, reversibility, entropy and noise in physics and information theory). Pre-requisite: Physics 41. Pre- or co-requisite: Math 53 or CME 102.

EPS 1: Introduction to Geology (EARTHSYS 11)

(Former GEOLSCI 1) Why are earthquakes, volcanoes, and natural resources located at specific spots on the Earth's surface? Why are there rolling hills to the west behind Stanford and soaring granite walls to the east in Yosemite? What was the Earth like in the past, and what will it be like in the future? Lectures, hands-on laboratories, in-class activities, and one virtual field trip will help you see the Earth through the eyes of a geologist. Topics include plate tectonics, the cycling and formation of different types of rocks, and how geologists use rocks to understand Earth's history. Change of Department Name: Earth & Planetary Sciences (Formerly Geological Science)
Terms: Spr | Units: 5 | UG Reqs: WAY-AQR, GER: DB-NatSci, WAY-SMA

EPS 2: Chemistry of the Earth and Planets (EARTHSYS 2)

( EPS 2 - Former GEOLSCI 2) Chemistry of the Earth and Planets Couse Description: Introduction to chemical principles with an emphasis on applications in the Earth Sciences. Topics include the origin and distribution of the elements in the solar system and on Earth, the origin and structure of the Earth, its oceans, and atmosphere; crystal chemistry, structure, and transformations; predicting and balancing reactions; thermodynamics, phase diagrams, high temperature and aqueous geochemistry, weathering, isotope geochemistry, and organic geochemistry. Students will also be exposed to analytical methods used in the Earth sciences. Change of Department Name: Earth & Planetary Sciences (Formerly Geological Science)
Terms: Aut | Units: 3 | UG Reqs: WAY-SMA | Repeatable 3 times (up to 9 units total)

EPS 4: Coevolution of Earth and Life (EARTHSYS 4)

( EPS 4 - Former GEOLSCI 4) Earth is the only planet in the universe currently known to harbor life. When and how did Earth become inhabited? How have biological activities altered the planet? How have environmental changes affected the evolution of life? In this course, we explore these questions by developing an understanding of life's multi-billion year history using tools from biology, geology, paleontology, and chemistry. We discuss major groups of organisms, when they appear in the rock record, and how they have interacted with the Earth to create the habitats and ecosystems that we are familiar with today.
