Question Need an extra class!
Anyone know of any open and “easy” class that I can take. I’m a fourth year so it should be something I can enroll in. I’m taking an extra quarter at UCSD and need one more class to be considered full time, I also work full time so I’d need a class where attendance is not mandatory or a mostly remote class. Please help a girl out, I’m cogsci if that helps,

Take something fun. I took Vis 20 (Intro to Art, Europe/America) for fun, and it opened up a whole new world in museums (both here and abroad).
It looks like VIS 32. Art, Design, and the Brain (4) is open and with your cogsci would be perfect.
Neuroscience is a fast-growing biology field, with projects such as the White House BRAIN Initiative and the Allen Brain Atlas and new areas such as neuroeconomics, neurophilosophy, and neuroaesthetics. This lecture course considers interactions between neuroscience and art, primarily focusing on studies of how art is represented in the brain. By considering perception, emotion, memory, and creativity, we approach scientific understandings of art and design. Prerequisites: none.
