POSC 231 American Foreign Policy 6 credits
An introduction to the actors and processes of American foreign policymaking and to the substance of American foreign policy. The course aims to provide students with an understanding of how knowledge of the past, the global policy environment, the processes of foreign policymaking, and the specifics of a foreign policy issue come together to help determine modern American foreign policy. The course will review the structure of the international system of states, state power and interests, the historical context of American foreign policy, actors in American foreign affairs, models of foreign policy decision making, and the instruments of foreign policy. Recommended preparation: POSC 122, AP American Government or AP U.S. History.

POSC 232 PS Lab: Simulation Research 3 credits
Simulations, games and role-play exercises are commonly used as experiential learning tools to help students understand complex problems. They can also be used in a research context to explore processes that are difficult to observe in the field or that involve strategic, adversarial and interactive social choices among multiple actors (such as red team exercises). In this lab we will explore the use of simulation as a tool for social inquiry and policy making and use participant observation approaches to gather data from a large simulation exercise.

POSC 391 Independent Study 3 credits
As nations around the world race to advance AI, supercomputers, and renewable technologies, critical minerals are of increasing importance. These 50 minerals derive from different geologic settings and are subject to the push-and-pull of environmental and national security regulation. In this independent study, I plan to research the most important of these minerals and their roles in science, technology, international trade, and national security. This project bridges my interest in policy and my major in geology. I will write a paper as the end result.
