LBC Academics
LBC offers a typical natural sciences curriculum with the addition of History, Philosophy and Sociology of science courses, which examine the impact of science and technology on society
We refer to the social sciences and humanities curriculum as "history, philosophy, and sociology" or "HPS." Students have the opportunity to take HPS classes in four overlapping substantive areas: science, technology, the environment, and medicine
For students seeking information on the new pilot study for upper-level HPS courses that also fulfill university Integrative Studies (ISS and IAH) requirements.
