Core Project

The primary outcome of this course is that students from widely different fields should be able to communicate with each other, and understand what is important, difficult, and interesting about each other's respective areas of study. This does not mean that each student will be tasked to exercise skills in each of the fields they encounter. Rather, it means that through experience students will develop rudimentary understandings of how their fellow scientists think about their areas of study, and how to talk about your own research to facilitate a similar understanding.
