11.   Science of Creative Intelligence 创造型智力科学 CP610

The 33-lesson Science of Creative Intelligence (SCI) course presents the interdisciplinary basis of the entire graduate Computer Science program. The course is based on a series of videotaped lectures by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi on the nature, range, qualities, and principles of creative intelligence (as expressed in human consciousness and the laws of nature studied by the sciences). Maharishi also presents the expressions of creative intelligence in individual life and its application in every area of society to realize the highest potential. Because Computer Science like all other disciplines is based in the intellectual understanding and experience of the structures of Natural Law, the general principles brought out in this course provide a unifying theme for all of the more specific principles studied in all other courses in the curriculum.

In addition, during this course students learn the Transcendental Meditation Technique, which enlivens these same underlying qualities of intelligence in them, providing increased creativity, alertness, and intelligence as a basis for increased success in every area of study, their profession, and their life.

创造型智力科学的33节课将充分表现计算机科学研究课程跨越学科的能力，通过一系列Maharishi Mahesh Yogi所讲述的课程资料影片，学生们将了解创造型智慧的性质、范围、质量与原理。在人类的探索和每一个人的生活中都表现了人类智慧的创造性和它在社会中的作用。计算机科学和其他科学一样是人们在不断的探索与创造中得到的知识和对自然法的了解，所以通过这门课程学生们可以总结到所有其它课程中所含有的精华。另外通过Transcendental Meditation Technique（超越沉思技巧）学生么可以提高自己的智慧，使他们的创造力、警惕性和智能得到进一步的提高，为了他们将来在事业上的成功打下基础。
