AHY 1142 - Woodblocking Credits: 2
This course offers an introduction to the history and practice of woodblock printing world-wide, including Japan, France, Germany and the United States. Woodblock printing has facilitated transcultural artistic exchanges, as, for instance, in the late 19th century when European Modernists discovered Japanese Ukiyo-e woodcuts. The technique has also been a source of national identity and pride, as was apparent in Germany during the Expressionist movement, when artists were inspired by illustrators of the German Renaissance. According to their interests, students will conduct in depth research on artists who mastered this relief process and will present their research in class. In the studio, students will gain an appreciation for the versatility of this technique, which has been employed to create works that range from raw and immediate to measured and refined. This course will introduce such diverse artists as Albrecht Dürer, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Kitagawa Utamaro, Paul Gauguin, Mary Cassatt, Rockwell Kent and M.C. Escher.

BIO 1120 - Human Anatomy Credits: 4.00
A study of the anatomical structure of the human body. The basic concepts of anatomy: gross, microscopic, developmental, and clinical - will be studied by organ systems and will involve a balance between gross anatomical study and histology. Form-function relationships will be emphasized. This functional anatomy approach will explain how the shape and composition of the anatomical structures allow them to perform their functions. This course is appropriate for students interested in careers in biology, health, fitness, wellness, recreation, physical therapy, athletic training, coaching, medicine, nursing, or other fields where knowledge of the human body may be important. The labs provide an opportunity for practical experience and are intended to supplement and reinforce the material presented in the lectures.
To enroll in this course, you must have prior permission from the EPE Department Chair.
