Science fiction here is treated less as escapism and more as a cultural seismograph, a genre that registers American anxieties about technology, identity, and the future in ways "serious" literature often can't. You'll work primarily with films alongside literary texts, writing a sequence of short essays plus a final paper that push you to read cyborgs, dystopias, and alien Others as arguments about race, gender, class, ecology, and what counts as human. It pairs naturally with the department's other cultural-studies electives, and the analytic moves you practice here, decoding popular texts for ideology, transfer directly to any course that takes mass culture seriously.

Bu ders 3 programın seçmeli havuzunda.
Havuz listesi bölümün QME müfredatından; en küçük havuzlar önce yazılıyor, çünkü büyük "serbest seçmeli" havuzunda olmak dersi anlatmıyor. Seçmeli havuzunda olmak o dersi alabileceğin anlamına gelmez: ön koşul ve kontenjan ayrıca geçerli.
