PROGRAMMING FOR ENTREPRENEURS

In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of programming so you can start writing web applications that can potentially be used in non-profit or public sectors. The course will be very hands-on and you are expected to code during the class. The topics will include - fundamentals of computer science, programming basics, data structures, client-server architecture, javascript, application programming interface, LAMP stack and web frameworks, design tools, scalability issues and infrastructure for application deployment. We will discuss some of these topics in the context of agile development methodology for startups. If you are interested in building a startup as a social entrepreneur, the tools and methods you learn in this course should help you in coding the first prototype of your application. As part of the final project, you are expected to build a fully functional web application. No programming background is required. Students are expected to complete all the reading assignments before the first day of class.

EFFECTIVE MGMT IN THE PUB SERV

This course serves as an introduction to management in government and in the non-profit and private organizations that contract with and/or partner with government to provide public services.  Lectures, cases, discussions and group projects focus on an array of management tools that help managers implement public policy and deliver critical services.  While many examples come from the instructor’s experience in New York City and US state and federal agencies, numerous comparative cases and projects from Asia, Latin America and Europe are used to discover best practices, common challenges and the impact of culture on organization behavior. The course will be valuable to those expecting a career in large, complex organizations, either as a manager or a policy advisor. A laboratory section focuses on assigned readings and case studies, provides more opportunities for student discussions and brings in prominent guest speakers from all three sectors.

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT FOR PUB SERVICE ORG

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT:NONPROFIT

How can a nonprofit or public sector organization “be successful?” What does it take to achieve your mission? How should your organization be structured to be most effective? How do you deal with the loss of a major grant, the entrance of a new competitor, or a radical change in the political or funding landscape? How should you motivate your staff and sustain and grow your organization’s leadership?
In order to deal effectively with these challenges, managers need to acquire knowledge and skills in strategic management. These include conceptual and leadership skills such as the ability to accurately read change in the external environment, define and redefine organizational purpose, handle the complex trade-offs between demand for services and resource constraints, manage ongoing relationships and partnerships with other groups, maintain the commitment and productivity of employees, and guide the organization toward continuous improvement of service production and delivery systems to meet client needs. In other words, managers need deep knowledge of how to think, decide, and act strategically, both in organizational affairs and in matters affecting their capacity for leadership.
Strategic Management aims to prepare current and future managers of public service organizations for leadership roles by focusing on the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes needed to manage public service organizations strategically.

IDEOLOGIES/MYTHOLOGIES

This course examines the major theoretical texts on ideology and mythology and attempts to bridge what have otherwise been rather distinct analytic traditions within the field of anthropological analysis, namely symbolic and political anthropology. The readings from the course will be grouped to permit an interrogation of several major problematiques; the relationship between representation and mediation; the relationship between desire and interest in the representation of the social field; the question of symbolic efficacy compared to that of mystification; domination and hegemony in the field of ideas; the status of narrative and its relationship to truth claims; the relationship between poetics and politics. Readings are drawn from the canons of anthropology, political theory and literary criticism.

COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS

Prerequisites: SIPA U4200 or SIPA U6400 or SIPA U6401
This course aims to provide an introduction to cost-benefit analysis and the economic evaluation of government or development programs, projects and policies. The course consists of two parts: theory/methodology in the first half of the semester and application of the learned concepts through an analysis of various case studies in the second half. Case studies will cover the full range of possible applications of CBA -from early education, social policy, health, urban planning, transportation and energy to environmental regulations. Case studies will cover both the US and developing country contexts. In the second half of the semester students will be expected to apply what they have learned by carrying out a cost-benefit analysis on a topic of their choice. The project is expected to include all components of a professional CBA - description of policy or program scenarios to be evaluated, compilation and monetization of the main costs and benefits, development of an Excel model including discounting and sensitivity analysis.

INTERNATIONAL TRADE

The course has two dimensions: theory and policy. In the former, the fundamental models of international trade theory will be presented. Using these models we will try to understand why countries specialize and trade, what determines the pattern of trade (i.e., which country will export which good), and how trade affects relative prices, welfare, and income distribution within a country. The second part of the course deals with issues concerning trade policy.  We will compare the effects of and rationale behind the usage of various policy instruments such as tariffs, subsidies, quotas, etc. The political economy of trade policy and trade policy in developing countries will also be covered. Additional topics may be included at a later stage if time permits.
