PHIL 140 for Data Science & STEM Students

I'm writing to pass on some information about a class offering that is of interest to students in Data Science. In turn, I'm hoping you can make your counselors and advisors aware so that they can steer students in the right direction.

There is a special section of PHIL 140 targeted to STEM students, and in particular to students in Engineering, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, and Data Science. As you already know, that class transfers to UMD as ENEE 200: Technology and Consequences, a required course for Engineering majors, thus accelerating time to degree for our transfer students. 

What you may not know is that the course also satisfies the ethics course requirement for Data Science majors here at MC, and that DS students can tailor their final project in that course to address issues directly relevant to their major. I have attached a flyer that I'm hoping you can pass on to folks in your area. 

Thanks so much for helping to get the word out about this important offering! Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm also including Rachel Saidi here.
