SPIRE First Year Lecture

Catalog description

This is a course designed for first and second year students who have agreed to join the SPIRE Fellows Program. We will provide a foundational overview of STEM education at Duke while also creating a safe space to discuss systemic inequities for women and underrepresented minorities in the sciences. Students will be encouraged to think critically about Duke campus culture and respectfully engage with their peers on issues of diversity and inclusion in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) initiatives.
