Lecture: 1
Non-Lecture: 0

A course for first-year STEM students who want to deepen their understanding of STEM research and careers by applying scientific methodologies to problem-solving activities through teamwork. Coursework will focus on the process of performing STEM research and the communication of STEM content to various audiences. In support of that goal, success strategies such as self-reflective writing, goal-setting, and time-management will be emphasized, library resources and scientific writing styles will be examined, the various formats for effectively conveying STEM data, information, and interpretations will be explored, and the ethics of STEM will be practiced. This course will build on the skills and success strategies introduced in STEM 101 and demonstrate the non-linear and iterative means by which STEM is practiced.
