A University Course - This class highlights cross-disciplinary dialogue and debate.

J. Hancock, M. Macy.

Intended for entering students and is organized around books rather than topics. The goal is to provide entering students with a foundational course in the integrative social sciences. It will be co-taught every fall by professors from two or more disciplines within the social sciences, thus providing a cross-disciplinary perspective, focusing on disciplinary similarities, and differences in constructs, assumptions, values, and methods, that social scientists employ when analyzing findings and arguments. This course is also designated as a University Course. Please visit blogs.cornell.edu/universitycourses/ for further information.
