MASTERS RESEARCH

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.

ADVANCED SEM-ETHNOMUSICOLOGY I

Prerequisites: The instructors permission. The seminar MUSIC GR9401 (Advanced Seminar Ethnomusicology 1) will be specifically focused on “ethnographic poetics” in writing about music, sound, dance, and sociality, and about the development of one’s own literary writing voice through fictocritical approaches to ethnographic narration and description. I hope to familiarize you with lineages of sound studies, ethnomusicology, musical anthropology, and sound studies that connect to linguistics and literary theory, and demonstrate the persistent disruption of the social scientific analytic gaze by the sensuous materiality of experience as sounded and written about — the inseparability of the semantic from the aesthetic, the musical from the ideational. Students will produce projects in this seminar which are themselves essays in literary and multimedia/multisensory representation. I want the seminar to be a space to do ethnographic writing specifically, at any level of advancement of your project. We will spend some time defining “poetics” and reading a selection of critically influential works by Bakhtin, Volosinov, Jakobson, Benjamin, and Sapir — a necessary engagement with the paradigm of structuralism and semiotics and their discontents. We will look specifically at the “ethnopoetics” literature in linguistic anthropology (mostly focused on Indigenous American cultures) of the 1960s-80s (work of Hymes, Tedlock, Sherzer, Urban) and at the literary and reflexive critique of ethnography in postcolonial cultural anthropology, as well as studying recent ethnographic texts that blur the lines of literary and critical voicing in exploring both the material and phenomenological dimensions of sounding/dancing culture, with texts partially selected by the seminar group based on personal project interests and partly based on availability of authors for class visits. Assignments will include weekly reflections on reading assignments and a steadily developed final project.

Practice Leadership and Quality

PRACTICE LEADERSHIP & QUALITY

This course is designed to provide the student with the knowledge and skills necessary to serve as a member and lead interdisciplinary groups in organizational assessment to identify systems issues and facilitate organization-wide changes in practice delivery utilizing quality improvement strategies. Course content focusses on understanding systems concepts and thinking to achieve results in complex health care delivery systems. Frameworks, approaches, and tools that foster critical thinking are examined as mechanisms to formulate vital questions, gather and assess relevant information, develop well-reasoned conclusions, test conclusions against relevant standards, compare conclusions with alternative systems of thought, and communicate effectively throughout the process.

Applying the Causal Roadmap to Single Ti

CAUS RDMP TO SIN TIM & LO

This course will introduce students to the theoretical and practical aspects of applying a “causal roadmap” to research questions in epidemiology using both single timepoint and longitudinal data. A causal roadmap approach to empirical investigation is intended to strengthen transparency and clarity in the research process and typically consists of several steps including: 1) formulating a research question, 2) translating it into a causal quantity, 3) listing the assumptions required to identify this causal quantity from the data, 4) choosing an estimation approach, and 5) doing the analysis. We will learn single timepoint and longitudinal g-computation/ standardization, inverse-probability-of-treatment weighting (IPTW), and doubly robust estimation approaches (e.g., targeted minimum loss-based estimation (TMLE)). The final class will include integrating machine learning into the estimation approach. Each module will include hands-on exercises in R in which we will apply the estimation approaches to data. Data for each analysis exercise will be provided by the instructor. For the final project, students can choose to use data provided by the instructor or data for which they already have access.
