Global Liberal Arts(Chemistry for a Sustainable World)

Detail MIMA Search

Our continued existence on Earth depends on human activities, which are sometimes complex and involve the identification and manipulation of natural and non-natural substances for our benefit. This course will introduce students to the development and application of the chemical principles and practices that are aimed at maintaining a safe and sustainable environment. Notably, students will be expected to understand the basic principles of environmentally friendly chemical processes as well as the environmental, political, and social factors driving these processes. Furthermore, students will be required to discuss the applicability and application of metrics for assessing chemical processes. Applicable Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): no poverty; good health and well-being; quality education; clean water and sanitation; industry, innovation and infrastructure; sustainable cities and communities; life below water; life on land.

Global Liberal Arts(The “SDGs” Contested)

Detail MIMA Search

授業の目標、概要 /Course Objectives/ OverviewDo you enjoy watching good movies? Are you interested in global environmental issues such as the SDGs? If your answer to both questions is "yes", this course is for you! First, we will explore academic literature in the field of political ecology relevant to sustainability and the SDGs; then, we will put the knowledge gained into practice by watching (good) movies and discussing how the films that we as global citizens consume can help us understand environmental and sustainability issues, and in which ways our own personal perceptions and academic views on nature society links are shaped by the process. Concepts from political ecology that will be covered in the course include environmental justice, ecosystem services, nature contributions to people, ecological economics, de-growth, or ecofeminism, among others. This is a fun, rewarding course both personally and academically. To take this course you do not need to have any specific background (students across any arts & sciences fields are all welcome); yet students are required to take the time to diligently watch all the movies in whole, with a critical, academic eye. While some (initial) films will be chosen by the instructor, as the semester advances, students may propose films to watch and lead the follow-up class discussion about them

Global Liberal Arts(Invisible Connections)

Detail MIMA Search

When we talk about issues from the global perspective, we often use abstract terms and metaphors that obscure the concrete reality and lived experience of billions of beings on our planet. It's a cliché to say that everything's connected; it's much harder to understand the complex systems with their unique networks of dependencies and hierarchies. In this course, we will draw from fields as diverse as biology, economics, data science, sociology, psychology, and literature to gain insights into the ways that humans and other life forms depend on each other. We will also interrogate how abstract thinking can lead to inequality and exploitation by hiding connections and contributions, which results in rewarding the few. The course is exploratory in its approach and doesn't require any previous knowledge. Students will be expected to reflect on the readings, present ideas in class, and choose a topic for their final project (an academic essay or a creative piece) related to one of the themes covered in class.

Global Liberal Arts(Introduction to Poverty and International Development)

Detail MIMA Search

This course introduces students to fundamental themes and issues in development studies. The course allows students to explore a range of critical debates and discussions connected to poverty in less prosperous parts of the world, and is divided into three parts. The first part of the course focuses on theories and approaches by examining how the understanding of development has evolved from the colonial period up to contemporary theories of what constitutes a developed society. Part two looks at key actors in the field of development including the state, national development agencies, global financial institutions and civil society organisations. The third part of the course explores a number of key themes in international development, looking at questions around how debt, health and conflict impact on development. In addition to the acquisition of content knowledge, students will develop their academic English skills in the following areas: listening comprehension; notetaking skills; critical thinking, discussion, intensive and extensive reading, summary writing, research, and presentation.
