This course is the first of two designed to introduce students to scholarly writing and dissemination for clinicians. The course provides students with practical information, exercises, and resources for successful clinical manuscript preparation and clinical conference poster and oral presentation. The course introduces students to fundamental skills for scholarly writing including familiarity with professional journals and conferences, utilization of electronic resources for literature searches and citation management, writing process and organizational skills, identification of predatory journal and conference enterprises, and academic integrity and the continuum of plagiarism. The course culminates in an annotated bibliography on a topic of the student’s choosing that allows for the synthesis and application of the skills and resources developed over the course. In conjunction with part two of the course, students are prepared for a lifelong approach to integrating scholarship into clinical practice.

This course is intended to provide a strong foundation in the concepts of genetics and clinical applicability of genomic concepts commonly seen in advance practice nurses’ clinical practice. Both classical Mendelian and molecular genetics will be examined, in order to provide a knowledge base that will enable the advanced practice nurse to integrate genetic and genomic knowledge into clinical practice. Using a case discussion approach, clinical issues of genetics testing, genetic exceptionalism, individualized risk assessments and predictions are explored throughout their life span.
This seminar introduces the resident to the foundations of advanced
orthopedic clinical practice. Contemporary advanced orthopedic clinical practice involves much more than orthopedic knowledge and clinical skills, encompassing medical screening for all major body systems and accurate interpretation and application of the available evidence-base clinical applications into practice. This faculty-guided seminar allows the orthopedic resident to develop clinical evaluation skills that incorporate medical screening and application of evidence-based findings. Resident will also have the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience by interacting with many health care professionals at New York Presbyterian and Columbia University Medical Center. This faculty-guided seminar allows the orthopedic resident to refine their ability to determine whether complex cases will benefit from physical therapy through thorough medical screening and interpretation of related diagnostic studies. This will be done initially at the outset of the residency, as the orthopedic residents will first be introduced to standard requirements for New York Presbyterian Hospital clinical practice. This will transition to clinical care as well as getting opportunities to participate in learning opportunities within other sub-specialty clinic settings. To determine the suitability of individuals with complex cases for physical therapy services, residents will develop medical screening abilities through targeted knowledge acquisition, assessment skills, and integration of imaging findings and pharmacology interactions. Residents will spend time within the musculoskeletal radiology service, orthopedics, dental services as well as other orthopedic related clinics to increase the resident’s orthopedic knowledge. Residents will also document patient cases by diagnostic criteria as well as complete APTA “technique” examinations of the UE, LE and the Spine as determined by ABPTRFE.

Building upon the foundations provided in the quantitative and qualitative research method courses, in this course students examine advanced methods and frameworks frequently used in studying health policy, health services research problems and comparative effectiveness research. In addition to a critical review of the methods, the course examines the relationship among science, policy and healthcare delivery, and identifies critical questions shaping the future policy research agenda.
This one year palliative and end of life care clinical fellowship will provide the post-clinical DNP graduate with a comprehensive experience in clinical practice across sites. Fellows will rotate through inpatient, long term, community and home care settings where the focus will be pain and symptom management, quality of life, and bereavement care. A multidisciplinary team under the direction of CUSON faculty will integrate education, research, and innovative clinical programs into the delivery of palliative and end of life care for adult patients and their families. Fellows must commit to a minimum of two days per week in the clinical setting and classroom.
Prescribed for M.S. and Ch.E. candidates; elective for others with the approval of the Department. Degree candidates are required to conduct an investigation of some problem in chemical engineering or applied chemistry and to submit a thesis describing the results of their work. No more than 6 points in this course may be counted for graduate credit, and this credit is contingent upon the submission of an acceptable thesis. The concentration in pharmaceutical engineering requires a 2-point thesis internship.
This course is designed to provide the student with the knowledge and skills regarding the uses of information technology to support evidence-based practice. The course will provide an overview of informatics topics of most relevance to evidence-based practice including: computer systems and system development; standardized clinical terminology; informatics standards; electronic health records; retrieval and critical analysis of digital data, information, and knowledge; clinical decision making; decision support; decision analysis; shared decision making; and computer aided instruction.
This required seminar is designed to further develop the role of advanced practice DNP students through case presentations. Using the CUSON DNP Competencies in Comprehensive Care as the framework, students will analyze clinical decision-making and utilizing evidence for best clinical practices.
This clinical is designed to provide students the opportunity to manage patients in a specialty-care or global health care setting.
The purpose of this course is to critically analyze healthcare policy in the US. Included is a focus on the advanced practice nurse role in shaping and influencing policy through advocacy and leadership to improve patient outcomes.
This is a course during which the mid-career executives who are enrolled as students in the Executive MPA program exhibit and share professional work they have managed or directly created during their first year in the program. Materials are presented to the faculty and students for criticism, analysis, and potential improvement.
Using the format of a research seminar highlighting research “challenges” of the DNSc faculty , this course is designed to strengthen the student’s ability to integrate and synthesize knowledge in statistics and nursing research methodologies, and to apply this integrated knowledge to common problems in study design and data analysis.
