SJSU begins fall term with over 50 new courses, from “Arabic II” to “New Media/New You.” Here’s more from Associate Vice President for Undergraduate Studies Dennis Jaehne:

“Our new courses provide a peek into how we are responding to changes around us in our social, cultural and technological lives. Examples include the engineering courses in web search, data mining and wireless, and computer science courses in wireless mobile networking and information security.

“In languages, I see the emergence of Punjabi and Arabic language and culture, and new business courses in global leadership and innovation as we prepare to launch a minor reflecting globalization. I note two communications courses that reflect the age, ‘New Media/You Media’ and ‘Internet Inquiry.’ We will also teach new green and biotech courses, mostly technical in engineering.”
