In this course, you'll explore the methods journalists use to gather and evaluate information. You'll learn how to think and behave as a journalist, how to conceive of journalistic story assignments, and how to report them quickly and accurately on deadline. You’ll learn how to gather original information first-hand and to combine it with contextual information that can be found online and elsewhere. You will be taught how to ensure that a story is true, both in the sense of getting the facts right and also by stating the implications fairly. You’ll also get some basic training in digital technologies such as photo, mobile video and audio that are essential parts of a modern journalist’s toolkit, and you’ll begin using them in the service of journalism, while thinking about ways to use social media to engage an audience for your work.

Theoretical Paradigms in Feminist Scholarship:
Course focuses on the current theoretical debates of a particular topic or issue in feminist, queer, and/or WGSS scholarship. Open to graduate students, with preference given to students completing the ISSG graduate certificate. Topics differ by semester offered, and are reflected in the course subtitle. For a description of the current offering, please visit the link in the Class Notes.
MIA & MPA Leadership and Management II Core.
This course examines leadership and innovative policy making through interdisciplinary analysis, reflective discussion, and applied case studies. Students will explore key themes such as the character and context of leadership, the role of institutions, the use of behavioral tools like “nudging,” and the dynamics of leadership during crises. Through group research projects and critical evaluation of policy leaders, including figures such as Zelenskyy, Yellen, Merkel, or Macron, students will assess how leadership choices shape major policy outcomes. The course prepares students to lead effectively across government, non-governmental, and private sectors by strengthening their analytical, strategic, and reflective leadership capacities.
This graduate seminar serves as a continuation of SPPO GR6001 (“Theory and Practice of Second Language Teaching”) and it is intended for in-service instructors of language, and language and content courses at the Department of Latin American and Iberian Cultures at Columbia University. It focuses on the application in the second language (SL) classroom of the pedagogical principles reviewed in the previous semester, with emphasis on methodological approaches and applied techniques.
Students will be directly mentored regarding the classroom treatment and presentation of grammatical, lexical, socio-cultural, and pragmatic aspects of the language in the SL classroom. From a communicative approach and beyond, they will also continue to engage with basic teaching techniques such as lesson planning, use of the target language, technology integration, task design, and the use of written and oral authentic materials. They will learn practically how to promote the development of students’ abilities for literacy and critical thinking. Finally, they will be carefully guided through the actual design and implementation of testing and assessment measures for the course they are teaching. In this seminar, we will also analyze real and potential case scenarios that will/may arise in the classroom and we will consider tactics to resolve problems that typically occur. Reflective teaching practices (teachers as learners of teaching, dynamics of classroom communication, the role of teachers’ beliefs about pedagogical practices) will be revisited and rethought.
Research in an area of Electrical Engineering culminating in a verbal presentation and a written thesis document approved by the thesis instructor. Must obtain permission from a thesis instructor to enroll. Thesis projects span at least two terms: an ELEN E6001 or E6002 Advanced Project followed by the E6003 Master’s Thesis with the same instructor. Students must use a department recommended format for thesis writing. Counts towards the amount of research credit in the MS program.

Fall: Deep, compelling stories are built on a foundation of solid research and reporting. The goal of this course is to inspire you to dig deep, to find multiple sources of information and to explore different ways of gathering, verifying and evaluating facts and putting them in context. This class also will challenge you to think critically about the questions that drive your work and introduce you to a wide range of research and verification tools. More specifically, you will learn how to:
Use advanced internet search techniques
Obtain and analyze public records and data, including how to compose thorough FOIA requests
Get information about individuals and groups using a variety of sources
Work with, and incorporate, data and numbers in your reporting and writing
Use social media for reporting and verification
Evaluate scholarly literature
This course also will help you to sharpen your ability to critically assess the information you have obtained so you can create unique and accurate works of journalism. You will consider tactics for overcoming common obstacles, such as verifying information from interviews, being aware of cognitive bias and navigating informational roadblocks.
Open only to graduate students in the basic and medical science departments. Prerequisite: course director’s permission; knowledge of biochemistry and cell biology.
