Course Aims

A broad survey of research and development approaches within the arts, the hard and soft sciences and the humanities. Basic concepts values, conduct, representation, and politics are addressed through such topical concerns the perennial dialogue between biological and socio-cultural models of research. The relation between theories and research methods is discussed in the context of classical and current research and creative activity. Students are asked to research and familiarize themselves with faculty work on campus and consider how they may engage research that is particularly interesting to them. Each topic addressed will also address the specific context of City University’s research as well as the larger Hong Kong and global cultural and scientific contexts. The syllabus will reflect the varying specializations of the instructors and visitors from year to year with a strong framework that keeps the focus on ways to nurture collaborations and dialogue between disciplines.

This course requires either co-teaching of a professor from science department and a professor from Creative Media or the presence of a faculty member with demonstrable experience as an artist and scientist.
