the ways in which we reflect on,

extend and enjoy our creativity; our appreciation of the aesthetic.

How the world works. An inquiry into the natural world and its laws; the interaction between the

natural world (physical and biological) and human societies; how

humans use their understanding of scientific principles;

the impact of scientific and technological advances on society

and on the environment.

How we organize ourselves. An inquiry into the

interconnectedness of human-made systems and communities; the

structure and function of

organizations; societal decision-making; economic activities and their

impact on humankind and the environment.
