Prerequisite: approval of adviser. Readings on topics in medical informatics under the direction of a faculty adviser.
This is a course is oriented to graduate students who are thinking about issues in teaching in the near and distant future and want to explore forms of pedagogy. The course will ask what it means to teach “as a feminist” and will explore how to create a classroom receptive to feminist and queer methodologies and theories regardless of course theme/content. Topics include: participatory pedagogy, the role of political engagement, the gender dynamics of the classroom, modes of critical thought and disagreement. Discussions will be oriented around student interest. The course will meet 4-5 times per SEMESTER (dates TBD) and the final assignment is to develop and workshop a syllabus for a new gender/sexuality course in your field. Because this course is required for graduate students choosing to fulfill Option 2 for the Graduate Certificate in Feminist Studies at IRWGS, priority will be given to graduate students completing the certificate.
This is the first in a series of four clinical education seminars designed to prepare students for their full-time clinical education experiences. This course includes an overview of the clinical education program, policies and procedures, and the site selection process. Students participate in training sessions required for the clinic including HIPPA and bloodborne pathogens training. Students are introduced to the practice sites available for Clinical Education I and participate in the placement proces

This is the third in a series of four clinical education seminars designed to prepare students for their full-time clinical education experiences. This course offers an opportunity to reflect on the challenges and highlights of the first clinical education experience. Facilitated discussions address topics such as initiative, communication and problem solving in clinical scenarios. Expectations for the Clinical Education II experience are discussed. Students are introduced to the practice sites available for Clinical Education II and participate in the placement process. Students set individualized goals and fulfill clinical site prerequisites.

The dissertation colloquium is a non-credit course open to MESAAS doctoral students who have completed the M.Phil. degree. It provides a forum in which the entire community of dissertation writers meets, bridging the departments different fields and regions of research. It complements workshops outside the department focused on one area or theme. Through an encounter with the diversity of research underway in MESAAS, participants learn to engage with work anchored in different regions and disciplines and discover or develop what is common in the departments post-disciplinary methods of inquiry. Since the community is relatively small, it is expected that all post-M.Phil. students in residence will join the colloquium. Post M.Phil. students from other departments may request permission to join the colloquium, but places for non-MESAAS students will be limited. The colloquium convenes every semester, meeting once every two weeks. Each meeting is devoted to the discussion of one or two pre-circulated pieces of work (a draft prospectus or dissertation chapter). Every participant contributes at least one piece of work each year.
Open only to Ph.D. candidates in the pharmacological sciences training program. A study of current topics of interest in pharmacology and related fields. Students are required to present materials for discussion.
Prerequisite: instructors permission. Participation in medical informatics educational activities under the direction of a faculty adviser.
Open only to Ph.D. candidates in the pharmacological sciences training program. Students are assigned to selected research laboratories to learn current fundamental laboratory techniques.
The reign of Constantine (306-337CE) was a period both of revival in Latin literature and of momentous cultural change. By examining a range of Latin texts, all of which directly address or respond to the figure of Constantine, we will consider how authors from different social and regional backgrounds, and of differing religious affiliation, developed or adapted traditional genres of ancient literature in response to a world in political, intellectual, and theological flux.
This course examines the distinctive political and social experiment with
dêmokratia
(literally, “the power of the people”) in Athens during the classical period. We focus initially on what we know about the origins and transformations of Athenian democracy, its key political institutions and social arrangements, especially as they developed in the last half of the 5th century BCE, and the relationship of democratic governance in the city with the rise of Athenian thalassocracy in Aegean Sea and beyond, which eventually brought Athens into major military conflicts with other Hellenic city-states during the 450s BCE and culminated in what has come to be known (largely thanks to Thucydides) as the Peloponnesian War (431-404 BCE).
Research in an area of Mechanical Engineering culminating in a verbal presentation and a written thesis document approved by the thesis advisor. Must obtain permission from a thesis advisor to enroll. Recommended enrollment for two terms, one of which can be the summer. A maximum of 6 points of masters thesis may count towards an MS degree , and additional research points cannot be counted. On completion of all masters thesis credits, the thesis advisor will assign a single grade. Students must use a department recommended format for thesis writing.
