Making Connections

NHS-coded Making Connection courses enhance awareness of the questions, discourses, motivations, and methods in the Humanities and Social Sciences.

Learn how scholars frame questions from a variety of materials and approaches (archives, works of art and literature, interviews, sets of statistical data, experiments), how to use appropriate methods for different kinds of questions, and when multiple approaches may be needed.

Engage with research investigations and creative expression, learning to present and communicate effectively in a variety of contexts, from academic papers and case studies to artistic works.

NST-coded Making Connection courses aim to help students understand and apply various modes of scientific inquiry – e.g., experimentation, modeling and simulation, statistical analysis, algorithmic thinking, logical proof, etc. – through concrete examples.

Draw parallels across the different STEM courses and make comparisons in how the same modes of inquiry are employed in different scientific, mathematical, or technological disciplines.

Whenever appropriate, relate some of the insights learnt to humanities and social sciences contexts.

NHT-coded Making Connection courses immerse students in a dynamic world of creative practices, offering a vibrant avenue for self-expression and artistic discovery. 

These NHT-coded courses celebrate creativity and innovation, providing a platform for students to not only explore their artistic potential but also to refine their skills in creative expression. Whether you're passionate about filmmaking, theatre, dance, or poetry, the NHT courses offer a dynamic and enriching experience for those seeking to bring their creative visions to life.

Students can choose either one of NHS4001 or NHS4002.
