  • A Cross-Disciplinary Minor to Engage Student's Creativity and Engineering
    Paper ID #27807 A cross-disciplinary minor to engage student’s creativity and engineering skills Dr. Zoe J. Wood, Cal Poly Whether it is creating computer graphics models of underwater shipwrecks or using art and creativity to help students learn computational thinking, Professor Zoe¨ Wood’s projects unite visual arts, mathematics and computer science. Via her NSF funded research projects she works with colleagues and students on robotics and computer graphics algorithms for shipwreck discovery and mapping which resulted in the discovery of a rare World War 2 airplane wreck. She works to increase the number of underrepresented students in her field through research projects, outreach activities and advising the student group Women Involved in Software and Hardware (W.I.S.H.). As co-founder of the interdisciplinary minor, Computing for the Interactive Arts, she believes in empowering students to realize their artistic visions via coding.

  • Biological Sciences
    Biological Sciences | 3 Gregory Hecht Associate Professor Biological Sciences [email protected] Education: BS (Molecular Genetics), University of Rochester MA (Molecular Biology), Princeton University PhD (Molecular Biology), Princeton University Research Expertise: Microbial genetics | Applied microbiology | Biology education My laboratory research interests focus on the use of both modern and “classical” genetic methods to address questions in applied microbiology. The primary project is the development and analysis of bacterial strains with the ability to immobilize soluble lead. We are using the freshwater oligotroph Caulobacter crescentus as a model organism to identify the genes and cellular components that are responsible for the biosorption of lead via a biologically mediated precipitation. We are using so-called classical genetic techniques coupled with whole genome sequence analysis. Our work has demonstrated that cysteine metabolism and enzymatic phosphatase activity are two of the key players in the biosorption of lead. We also conduct biofuels research. To make biofuel fermentations economical, the biocatalyst must have significant tolerance to the biofuel product. We have isolated ethanol-tolerant mutants of Escherichia coli FBR5 and carried out physiological and genomic analyses of these strains, demonstrating that the iron import gene fecA is important in determining the ethanol tolerance of the organism. Other previous applied microbiology projects in my laboratory have included industrial partnerships to study the enhancement of microbial activity in commercial grease traps and an analysis of microbial contamination of rice flour. Recent Academic Projects: My other area of interest is in the retention and education outcomes of students in the biology curriculum. I am currently involved in the Cumberland College Bridges to Rowan University, which focuses on improving the degree completion success rate of minority and disadvantaged students from Cumberland County College who transfer to Rowan University.

  • Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Music Double-Degree Option 1
    Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Music Double-Degree Option 1 BACHELOR OF ARTS/BACHELOR OF MUSIC DOUBLE-DEGREE OPTION • Students must meet the application requirements for both the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Music degree programs. • Students engage in professional study in music and study in the liberal arts, leading to both Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Arts degrees. • The duration of the double-degree option may vary among disciplines but will be less than the sum of the durations of both degree programs if undertaken separately. For most students, pursuit of a double-degree option will require five years of study. It should be noted that in a few cases (notably when the B.A. graduation major is in the natural sciences) completion of all requirements in five years may not be possible. • Students pursuing the double-degree option may choose between the five Bachelor of Music graduation majors (church music, composition, elective studies, music education, and performance) and any of the Bachelor of Arts graduation majors except music. • Students shall meet the requirements for the B.A. graduation major and B.M. graduation major, as well as the OLE Core Curriculum requirements and general graduation requirements for the two degrees. Note that degree requirements completed for one degree also count toward the corresponding requirements in the other degree. • The final two years of coursework in pursuit of the degrees must be spent in residence. 17 of the last 20 full-course credits must be earned through St. Olaf. Some students may require up to 43 total credits in order to complete all requirements for both degrees.
