<p>conflict studies, this is the description: “Conflict Studies is a major that brings together a number of academic disciplines that focus on conflict as one of their organizing concepts. Because of its ubiquity and significance in human life, the study of the process and resolution of conflict is increasingly claiming a central place in the study of development in general and peaceful change in particular.” i guess it is kinda a combination of political science, sociology, and psycology.</p>

<p>I surprised Theater isn’t on here…personally I would like like to become a theater major because I want to become a Drama
teacher, otherwise I wouldn’t major in it.</p>

<p>Seems to work for me just fine. {Note, I recommend grabbing the entire site quickly, as it might disappear soon.} </p>

<p>That might be even better than simply relying on a bunch of downloaded course notes. </p>
<p>As far as whether to get on with it or not, I view it as a no-lose proposition. There’s a chance - admittedly small - that your apps become tremendously popular, showering riches upon you either through download sales or advertising fees. More reasonably, your apps may achieve modest popularity which may allow you to generate a small side-income as part-time developer (i.e. writing apps for others). Even if your apps never become popular, at least you can boast of your Iphone app development skills on your resume, and you can invite potential employers to browse and download your app from the App Store as a demonstration of your skill set. Frankly, that’s a more marketable skill than what many other college students are able to exhibit on their resumes. </p>
<p>I wonder why Berkeley doesn’t offer a smorgasbord of electives that provided practical skills. Berkeley has one of the best CS and EE departments in the world, so surely Berkeley could easily offer a panoply of IT skills, from website/e-commerce development (i.e. to build a Facebook or Amazon-like site) to widget development such as Iphone or Facebook apps, to Linux/Solaris/Windows server & Cisco router configuration/administration, to practical computer security such as designing firewalls and hardening systems. That way, every student - even the humanities majors - would have the opportunity to learn highly marketable skills. </p>
<p>Again, for those who would argue that such activities would not be sufficiently ‘academic’, well, Stanford used to offer a Facebook apps course and is now offering the Iphone apps course. Why not Berkeley?</p>
<p>it would make a great DeCal - if someone gets interested in building and hosting such a course</p>
<p>An education is an education if it helps one solve every day’s challenges, so there isn’t a reason why Berkeley should not have these courses.</p>
<p>Are there any other courses that you recommend for any other non-science majors like me? I’ve been looking into Stats 133 and noticed it doesn’t have any pre-reqs. Would that be a good class to take for marketability?</p>
<p>Let me restate that actually: Would Stat 133 be a class that would help in entrepreneurial endeavors?</p>
<p>Sakky,thank you.i just downloaded the stuff,and i have ordered an iphone applications book.Its a lot more interesting than writing “hello world” in Java</p>
<p>Does anyone know how to write iphone apps without using a Mac?Is it even legal?</p>
