BIOL 262 - Shaping National Science Polic

Description
Shaping National Science Policy” is a Spring Semester seminar that introduces students to science policy, science advocacy and practical politics. The course is both a reading seminar, where students discuss assigned readings, and a project course. The readings explore issues in science policy and case studies at the intersection of science and politics. The readings are varied and include a play, court decisions, Congressional hearings and other materials. For the projects, students work in groups throughout the semester. Each group works on a science-related topic of its choosing and attempts to get Congress to take action on it, by dealing directly with Congressional offices, other public officials, advocacy groups, academic experts and others, as appropriate. The seminar is three credits. Biology students may count one 200 level course towards the biology elective credits and Biology of Global Health students may count this course for an interdisciplinary perspective course. Physics students count the class as a restricted elective towards a degree.

I found the tests to be tedious and difficult... all memorization of random facts. She's a nice lady, but her powerpoint lectures can be jumbled and not overly clear. The final project is easy but very time consuming, and participation saved my grade. Definitely not one of the better classes I've taken at Georgetown.
