Albright College
Environmental Studies albright college catalog courses Environmental Studies Students who wish to pursue careers connected to environmental issues have several options of study at Albright College. Environmental studies students may choose among Environmental Science Environmental Chemistry Environmental Policy or Environmental Psychobiology . All environmental students must complete a first year environmental seminar (Environment and Society, EVS 101) and a final junior or senior level seminar (Environmental Capstone Seminar, EVS 400) as part of their curriculum of study. The first-year seminar is designed to allow entering students the opportunity to explore the different options of study and to provide a shared foundation for the rest of their program. The capstone course is designed to encourage students from the different tracks to integrate the natural and social sciences in their approach to environmental issues, and to work together to apply their specialized knowledge in the pursuit of solving the complex problems facing society today.

About Us
The Randall Museum offers a unique haven where children and adults can explore the creative aspects of art and science and make discoveries about nature and the environment by direct participation in classes, workshops, special events, and clubs. The Randall Museum houses changing science, art and interactive exhibits. Permanent areas of the Museum are a live animal exhibit, woodshop, arts and ceramics studios, theatre, darkroom, lapidary workshop, greenhouse, and gardens.
The Randall is different from other museums and hands-on discovery centers in that it attempts to provide a vehicle for personal experiences rather than a fixed destination.
OUR MISSION:
"The Randall Museum offers youth and adults opportunities for active involvement and recreation in an integrated program of arts and sciences. Focusing on the cultures and environment of the San Francisco Bay Area, the museum strives to inspire creativity, curiosity, and an appreciation of the world around us."
The Randall Museum is a facility of the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department

Chapter 1: THE NATURE OF SCIENCE
T HE S ... NTERPRISE
Chapter 1: THE NATURE OF SCIENCE
Over the course of human history, people have developed many interconnected and validated ideas about the physical, biological, psychological, and social worlds. Those ideas have enabled successive generations to achieve an increasingly comprehensive and reliable understanding of the human species and its environment. The means used to develop these ideas are particular ways of observing, thinking, experimenting, and validating. These ways represent a fundamental aspect of the nature of science and reflect how science tends to differ from other modes of knowing. It is the union of science, mathematics, and technology that forms the scientific endeavor and that makes it so successful. Although each of these human enterprises has a character and history of its own, each is dependent on and reinforces the others. Accordingly, the first three chapters of recommendations draw portraits of science, mathematics, and technology that emphasize their roles in the scientific endeavor and reveal some of the similarities and connections among them. This chapter lays out recommendations for what knowledge of the way science works is requisite for scientific literacy. The chapter focuses on three principal subjects: the scientific world view, scientific methods of inquiry, and the nature of the scientific enterprise. Chapters 2 and 3 consider ways in which mathematics and technology differ from science in general. Chapters 4 through 9 present views of the world as depicted by current science; Chapter 10, Historical Perspectives, covers key episodes in the development of science; and Chapter 11, Common Themes, pulls together ideas that cut across all these views of the world.
