SUMMER A & B TERMS
Syllabus Description (from Canvas):
Classics 205, a popular 3-credit course option for all students, is especially useful for those whose main interests are in STEM subjects or who intend to enter the medical field. The course is designed to help the student master the scientific and technical vocabulary of his or her particular field, with particular reference to the biological sciences, through a study of the Latin and Greek roots used to create the majority of scientific terms. Knowledge of Latin or Greek is not required.
The textbook can be purchased at the University bookstore for about $25: Donald M. Ayers, Bioscientific Terminology: Words from Latin and Greek Stems (The University of Arizona Press)
All Summer sections will be held online in asynchronous format.
