IMMIGRANT HEALTH
Migration is a complex social phenomenon which deeply affects human life. Immigrants face difficulties adjusting to destination environments and are potentially exposed to adverse policies and experiences such as discriminations and stigma, affecting their well-being, regardless of reasons for migration. Understanding migration and its impact on health is important for disease prevention, preserving the health and rights of migrants and assuring the well-being of the communities of which they are a part. This course will identify and analyze the economic, institutional, socio-political and cultural factors affecting the health and well-being of immigrants in the US. It will assess past and existing policies and programs to ascertain the extent to which they respond(ed) to the needs of the populations. Students will explore structural factors affecting the health of immigrants, and think critically about programs and policies that address important immigration issues.

PLANNING, MANAGING & COMMUNICATING FOR E
PLN MNG & COMMS EVD PH RE
Evidence-based public health (M Plescia, AJPH 2019) includes making decisions based on peer-reviewed evidence, using data systematically, and disseminating what is learned. Conducting evidence-based public health that reflects the mission and values of the Department of Population & Family Health (PopFam) requires skills to: clarify gaps in knowledge and evidence to explicate how such gaps can be filled; solicit funding and community support for research projects that can inform public health practice; ensure applied public health research is feasible, and carried out efficiently and according to plan; and that the results and “lessons learned” are disseminated to guide next action steps. This course will provide students with skills to engage in culturally competent public health work from the get-go – recognizing how to be attentive to inclusion and equity in generating research and evaluation questions, project management, and communication and dissemination. This course is designed as a complement to students’ experiences with research or program-based practica and their subsequent capstone/integrated learning experience (ILE); therefore, priority will be given to second-year PopFam students.

Emerging Capital Markets: Theory & Pract
Emerging Cap Mkts: Thry & Prac
The goal of this course is to teach students about the historical relationships between financial risk, capital structure and legal and policy issues in emerging markets. Our strategy will be to develop a model of how and why international capital flows to emerging market countries and to use the model to examine various topics in the history of international financing from the 1820's to the present. Students will identify patterns in investor and borrower behavior, evaluate sovereign capital structures, and analyze sovereign defaults, including the debt negotiation process during the various debt crises of the past 175 years. We will focus primarily on Latin America, emerging Asia, and Russia, although the lessons will be generalized to cover all emerging market countries.

DEMOGRAPHY AND PUBLIC HEALTH: UNDERSTAND
DMGRPHY & PUB HLTH: UND T
Each year there are 146 million births, 57 million deaths, and the world population grows by 89 million people – about 243,000 per day or 10,000 an hour. This has an impact on the people and nations of the world--public health; economies; national security, environment, etc. in countless ways. This course focuses on the determinants of these changes and their consequences for the future health and well-being of the human population. This is also an introduction to how demographers study the determinants and consequences of population trends. The course provides an understanding of the field of demography, the study of human populations, and how they change by birth, death, and migration and ultimately shape population health. The course builds on an overview in the CORE to demonstrate demographic issues and methods in public health. The course presents population issues and policies in global contexts as well as in the United States.

EVIDENCE BASED PRACTICE I
This is the first course in the Evidence Based Practice sequence that prepares students with the knowledge and skills to be an evidence-based practitioner. The American Physical Therapy Association’s Vision 2020 calls for physical therapists to “render evidence based services throughout the continuum of care.” The course emphasizes lifelong learning and the need for integrating the best available research into clinical practice. The curriculum in critical exploration is designed to provide students with knowledge and understanding of the purpose and methods of research in the biomedical, social and basic sciences relevant to the practice of physical therapy. The course introduces skills regarding ethics of clinical research, writing answerable questions, efficient and structured methods to find, appraise and apply relevant research, measurement theory, validity (internal and external), reliability and study designs.

U.S.,MID EAST & THE COLD WAR
This course will examine various answers to these questions, as well as the continuities and disjunctures between these different periods. Specifically, we will look at great power policies in the Middle East until 1917, and attempt to see which constants carried over to the Soviet period and the Cold War. We will also examine the degree to which the United States simply stepped into the shoes of Britain in the Middle East, beginning in 1947. Much of the course will concentrate on the strategic weight attached to the Middle East by great power rivals, and the nature of their interaction with each other and with internal regional dynamics -- nationalism, religion, reform and revolution -- in the pre-Soviet and Soviet periods. We will conclude by examining how the collapse of the Soviet Union has changed the situation in the Middle East.

Reading Orientalism from the Orient
The publication of Edward Said’s Orientalism in 1978 heralded heated debates that centered on the question of the representation of the other, more specifically, European constructions of the “Orient.” Extending over many academic disciplines and covering ideological, political, social, cultural, and artistic realms, Said’s book led to the emergence of a wide literature. As testified by scores of recent books and articles, the discussions continue to maintain their fervor. Nevertheless, one perspective remains neglected: the ways in which the othered subjects evaluated the European discourse. Our seminar will address this lacuna and study how “Orientals” read the Orientalist discourse. Examining the work of Middle Eastern authors (and in a few cases, artists), we will gain insights into their reactions, anger, and appropriations, as well as the broader parameters of their own intellectual searches and struggles. Capitalizing on original texts (made accessible in English in my
Europe Knows Nothing about the Orient
, 2021), we will listen to late Ottoman and early Turkish Republican intellectuals, who produced a significant discourse of their own. In accord with the European texts, these come from different disciplines and range from philosophical essays to journalistic editorials, academic articles on art and architectural history, and literary works (novels, short stories, poems). We will expand the Ottoman/Turkish perspective by including voices from other parts of the Middle East and North Africa, while also considering European critical writing. The chronological bracket is from the 1870s to the 1930s, corresponding to the peak of Orientalism.

What is to be done to rebuff the aggressor? Can diplomacy still play a role? These and other issues are dealt with in this course. Special emphasis is made on the assessment of current conflict with Moscow and on the new trends in foreign policy doctrine. The issues of national security and current political situation are dealt with extensively. The course delivers first-hand insights by a career diplomat, who has been actively involved in the implementation of Ukrainian foreign policy for over three decades.

Historiography of Africa
This colloquium is intended to introduce Ph.D. students from History and related fields to contemporary Africanist historiography. The genealogies of the field are multiple and distinct. However, rather than trace those genealogies from their distinctive points of origin, the course examines some of the key characteristics and problematics of Africanist historical production over the last generation. Signal elements of Africanist historiography that we will explore include: the tension between historical analysis and work produced in the frame of other social sciences, particularly ethnography, and/or work that engages with the colonial library; the variable weight accorded Africa’s deeper or ‘pre-colonial’ past in contemporary historical analysis (i.e., the balance between historicity and historicism); the privileged place of methodologies, particularly in oral history, within the historiography; the changing relationship between word, text, and object as sources of knowledge about the recent African past; the circumscription of the religious within the rational. The colloquium offers an historiographic review that will allow us to gain our bearings in Africanist historical production, and it is intended to enable future critical reading of Africanist work and awareness of the strengths and limitations of the field.

INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL ECONOMY
Prerequisites: the instructors permission prior to registration. This is a survey course in international political economy. This course examines how domestic and international politics influence the economic relations between states. It will address the major theoretical debates in the field and introduce the chief methodological approaches used in contemporary analyses. We will focus attention on different types of cross-border flows and the policies and international institutions that regulate them: the flow of goods (trade policy), the flow of people (immigration policy), the flow and location of production (foreign investment policy), the flow of capital (financial and exchange rate policy), and the flow of pollution (environment policy). The goal of this course is to cover, in some depth, many of the main topics and readings in international political economy. The readings each week are designed to tackle some of the essential points of a substantive topic, as well as raise deeper methodological questions that have application to other issues and themes in the sub-field. Not coincidentally, a related goal is to partially prepare students for the IR Field Exam. To help with that, a number of recommended readings accompany each weeks topic.

PELVIC HEALTH ELECTIVE
This course is designed to prepare the entry-level physical therapist on the unique approach in completing an evaluative screening and treatment plan for a patient with pelvic health issues. Many pelvic health issues are frequently under-reported and under-diagnosed based on common misconceptions and social stigmas associated with these sensitive and personal conditions. As we move into our doctoring profession, health and wellness can be part of the cornerstone of a pelvic health specialty, however, appropriate and timely diagnosis and treatment is essential. Physical therapists are an integral part of the multidisciplinary approach assisting women and men to overcome and manage health issues. This course is designed to enable students, as entry-level clinicians, to improve care for clients throughout their lifespan based on emerging scientific and clinical evidence related to medical conditions unique to pelvic health, and those which occur more frequently in women or present differently in women. The course will include presentations for key pelvic health specialty and subspecialty disciplines including bone health across the life span, obstetrics and gynecology, chronic pelvic pain, bladder and bowel dysfunction, nutritional dysfunction, cancer rehabilitation and fibromyalgia. Topics will primarily target women from adolescents, childbearing, peri-menopause, menopause, post-menopausal and geriatric years. The pelvic health specialty will also cover similar topics for the male and pediatric populations.

CERVICOGENIC PAIN & TMJ
Physical therapy education relative to an understanding of the various types of headaches, orofacial pain and temporomandibular disorders (TMD), as well as their inherent patho-physiological mechanisms, are commonly not covered sufficiently within the entry-level or graduate physical therapy curriculum. This specialty course has been designed to fill the void, which exists beyond the evaluation of the cervical spine and provide knowledge as well as training in definitive evaluative and therapeutic skills unique to this specialty area. This course is designed to provide the information and necessary skill to delineate the major types of headaches, orofacial pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) movement disorders and associated symptoms that originate from the craniofacial and temporomandibular regions from those of a cervicogenic and/or comorbid origin. An in-depth understanding of the anatomical and neurophysiological factors relative to the trigeminocervical, sub-occipital and temporomandibular complex, as well as the cranium in relation to headaches and orofacial pain will be presented. Sub-occipital, orofacial, temporomandibular and cranial pain/dysfunction syndromes will be analyzed with emphasis placed upon their delineation and subsequent development of comprehensive therapeutic paradigms. Workshop sessions will follow the lectures and focus upon case study analysis, proper sequencing and use of manual upper ¼ and craniofacial (intra & extraoral) soft tissue and joint mobilization techniques, therapeutic exercise, adjunctive modalities, dry needling as well as postural and ergonomic intervention for the reduction of pain and inflammation, restoration of function and prevention of recurrence.

PERFORMING ARTS ELECTIVE
This elective course is designed as an introduction for students wishing to gain competencies related to physical therapy for dancers. Target patient population will be ballet, modern and post-modern dancers. The elective will help students begin to develop a template for structuring assessment and interventions with the above patient population, as well as cultivate the independent clinical reasoning skills required in a direct-access environment. Populations (dancers, dance teachers, and choreographers) in settings specific to their professions and emphasizing lifespan issues in the field. The condition of direct access in on-site facilities enables patients to contact PT quickly when troubles arise and encourages the clinician in clinical decision-making early in the history of an injury or condition. The elective will emphasize recognition of certain characteristic patterns of injury, differential diagnosis and red flags, including when to refer to other health care professionals, recognizing cultural issues in the delivery of care for these patient populations, lifespan issues, appropriate therapeutic exercise progressions, and patient education and self-care.
