3. Do you enjoy learning new things, or do you feel more comfortable when you already know a lot about the subject?

Usually when you take a 3000 level course, you have already taken at least one previous lower-level course in the same subject area. Yet very few students who take this course have had previous history of science (HSCI) courses, and that is okay -- no prior knowledge of history of science is necessary, but if you have some experience it will be useful to you.

Also, no prior knowledge of science or mathematics is necessary, but if you know a lot about science, it will be of use to you.

In the same way, no prior knowledge of history is necessary, but if you know a lot about history, it will be of use to you.

Other than Junior-level standing, there are no pre-requisites for this course.

In other words: no matter what your background, in this course you will discover a lot that is new!
