COR 307 THE FUTURE NOW
What does the future hold for humankind? This course explores the social, economic and political implications of the future now being projected by experts in all fields of study. Learn how to recognize, evaluate and work to adapt to expected future realities in an age in which nested networks influence everything (Facebook, the interstate highway system, sustainable resources, etc.) to a greater degree than ever before. Build new paradigms, engage in an intriguing quest for foresight and prepare yourself to work toward the best future possible as you synthesize a better understanding of the impact of accelerating change. This course is writing intensive. Open to students in the third or fourth year of study.
