The Public Health Impact of Sexually Tra

You’ve probably heard the good news of a public health success: rates of new HIV infections are declining. And you may have deduced, quite logically, that the same may be true of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In fact, in an alarming trend, the converse is true. Rates of STIs in the US have steadily increased over the past four years, with over 20 million cases of STIs diagnosed annually, at a cost to the American taxpayer of over $19 billion. And yet, many public health professionals lack expertise in effective practices to control STIs, and the cultural competency necessary to translate critical content to vulnerable populations.

 

This course will equip you with the knowledge and skills to address current and emerging issues within the field of sexually transmitted Infections. You will explore the social determinants that contribute to STI outcomes; learn what approaches are most effective in different contexts, from schools and colleges to correctional facilities to family units; develop social marketing methods to reach a variety of vulnerable communications; and more. You can play a crucial role in helping to curb this epidemic. This course will teach you how.

PT MGMT ORTHOPEDIC CONDITIONS I

This course is the first in a series of four, which applies the Patient Management Model to musculoskeletal conditions associated with the hip. Examination, evaluation, diagnosis, prognosis, intervention and outcome assessment for the hip is linked with diagnostic imaging and conservative and surgical management. Interventions integrate joint and soft tissue manual therapy techniques with therapeutic exercise. Emphasis is placed on clinical decision-making and evidenced-based practice in individuals with orthopedic conditions. Exercise applications that are utilized throughout lifespan that address identified impairments; activity and participation limitations are emphasized. Students will apply clinical decision-making strategies to practice, design, modify and progress exercise programs with proper biomechanical alignment and proper muscle balance for optimal performance. This course will be given in a flipped hybridlearning format consisting of traditional face-to-face classroom time, asynchronous on-line video lectures, integrated clinical experiences, as well as face-to-face classroom time for active learning seminars for higher-level activities to solve problems and apply what has been learned outside the classroom to new situations. The active learning strategies facilitate “thinking on your feet.” Students will need to prepare before a class session and then apply what was learned in face-to-face class meetings as well as the video lectures.

PT MGMT PEDIATRIC CONDITIONS

Pediatrics

The American Physical Therapy Association Vision 2020 states that graduates will have the knowledge and skills for general physical therapist practice with patients of various ages from birth to late adulthood. This 16-week clinical science course focuses on motor development and physical therapy management of pediatric disabilities and chronic health conditions from birth to age 21 years. The course introduces students to typical and atypical motor development and the influence of body systems on the acquisition of motor skills during infancy, childhood and adolescence. This information is used as a basis for examination, evaluation, diagnosis, prognosis and intervention planning within the frameworks of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice. Students administer and interpret norm- and criterionreferenced measures specific to pediatrics in order to identify impairments, activity limitations and participation restrictions. The plan of care is considered in a broad context including direct interventions, coordination, communication, and consultation and considers personal (child’s culture, family, personality, and age) and environmental factors (impact of legislation, practice setting, team collaboration, and service delivery models). A problem-based format with complex patient cases serves as the basis for developing an evidence-based plan of care.

Realizing Global LGBTI Health and Human

LGBTI Health & Hum Rights

The global movement to realize lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) rights has both gained traction and faced significant pushback in recent years: although global normative and legal frameworks have evolved in some ways to recognize the rights of sexual and gender minorities, LGBTI people around the world are experiencing progress, setbacks, and scapegoating.  The course will apply concepts of equity, access, inclusion, and human rights to interrogate how and why sexual and gender minorities are often excluded from humanitarian and development interventions despite the compounding oppressions that they face. Drawing upon the practice of public health and human rights work from humanitarian crises and low- and middle-income countries around the world, this course will explore how practitioners and advocates can best understand the evolution of LGBTI human rights in a variety of contexts; students will also probe how to become effective and supportive partners and allies to grassroots movements and organizations. Through a series of case studies, students will examine how LGBTI people are challenging the gender binary in societies around the world, including biases inherent in the structures of humanitarian and development work, and how such activists, advocates, and artists are mobilizing to ensure their inclusion in decision-making fora and their access to health and other services.  Students will also consider and develop strategies to support local activists in these movements; these activists embody the intrinsic vulnerability of being sexual and gender minorities in countries where those identities are criminalized, the courage of those determined to change their societies, and the cunning to seize upon the societal jolts that humanitarian and development work can, sometimes, provide.

DIRECTING FOR STAGE MANAGERS

In the collaborative world of theatre, the director is at the helm. We, as stage managers, support the director’s creative process from rehearsals through opening night. What happens when the director leaves and turns over the maintenance of the production to the stage manager? This course will help give you the tools to meet that challenge. Beginning with rehearsals, how do we best observe directors so that we can understand and preserve their vision? In preparation for working with the cast, we will discuss the various acting methods. How do we prepare our script to direct cast replacements, incorporating script analysis and acting beats. We will also review the basics of directing and identify the most influential directors now, and in recent history.

Reproductive Justice Movements: Black Bo

REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE MOVE

Black history is a subject that has been largely repressed, rewritten, and condensed in the cataloging of American history. The colonization of Africa, the centuries of slavery, and the subsequent discrimination and marginalization of people of African descent have all contributed to an under-representation of black voices in the mainstream historical record. Reproductive Justice, the term originally coined by 16 Black women in the US suffered for many years from such under-representation even as it was adopted by three other communities of color during the 1990s in an attempt to draw attention to the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, have children, not have children, and parent the children we have in safe and sustainable communities. Attempts to realize this human right have been intentionally thwarted in US, Latin American and even African societies far before it was named. This course will investigate Black sexuality and attempts to use it throughout history to denigrate Black cultures with special attention to Black feminism and the fight to reclaim reproductive autonomy in cultures mired with racism and sexism.

Chinese Painting Connoisseurship

Authenticity is critical to connoisseurship and to writing reliable art history. This course is an introduction to masterpieces of Chinese painting and the methods and technologies used to create copies, variations, and imitations. Throughout dynastic China, painters copied fine paintings as a way to learn their trade. Collectors invited accomplished painters to copy damaged paintings to preserve a composition or to refresh their collections. When copies, whether student exercises or meticulous facsimiles, make their way into the marketplace, the original style of an artist is muddled. This problem is further compounded by artists who produced paintings for profit and dealers who altered the signatures and paratexts of paintings to increase their value.

Students will take turns leading seminar discussions to analyze the readings, based in part on the questions that each student will submit the night before the seminar. We will study masterpieces and lesser works in several collections including the Brooklyn Museum, The Freer Gallery, the Metropolitan, Princeton University Art Museum, and Yale Art Museum, with field trips to two of these institutions.

Ukiyo-e: Beyond the Great Wave

In this seminar we will take a closer look at the prints, paintings, and illustrated books produced in the genre known as “ukiyo-e,” the “pictures of the floating world.” We’ll begin by asking how the “Great Wave” became a global icon and we’ll bust the myth of prints being used as wrapping paper. As we learn the history of the genre, from 1600 to ca. 1850, we’ll also make critical interventions into that narrative, asking how “ukiyo-e” became a genre within a larger artistic sphere; how publishers collaborated with designers to construct artistic personae; how illustrated books contributed to knowledge formations; and how concepts of authenticity and authorship remain critical to its understanding. Taught online, this course will also consider how internet resources affect our understanding of the work of art. Students need not have any Japanese language skills but should have taken related courses in art history or East Asian Studies.

Abortion in the United States: Politics

ABORTION IN THE UNITED ST

This course examines a range of historical and current issues relating to the politics, policies and provision of abortion in the United States. Students will engage with a wide range of texts and resources and will hear from experts in the field. In the seven sessions, students will analyze real-time policy debates and developments in the courts, review recent social science research and messaging research from reproductive health, rights, and justice experts and discuss the role that research plays in public policy with experts themselves. This course will examine the history of abortion in the United States to better understand how provision has changed over time as laws have evolved and how abortion has become so politically fraught. It will delve into recent research studies on abortion access and examine how various laws have impacted abortion access, how immigration status impacts access to care, and how abortion access impacts economic outcomes across the lifecycle. We will examine polling on abortion attitudes to discern the current state of public opinion, how it is measured and what we can glean from it. Students will learn more about the range of abortion methods currently offered, and will hear from abortion providers about how those procedures have evolved, how those procedures are (or could be) impacted by public policy, and how medical advances are and will continue to change abortion. Lastly, it will review how states are experimenting with policies that expand access to sexual and reproductive health care and allow students to imagine what inclusive, effective policies could look like at the state, federal and international level.

Management Consulting Lab

This full-semester, lab course and strengthens your consulting, problem solving, and communication skills through work on a semester-long project with a company that is based in Africa. Students will work with companies that are enrolled in the Entrepreneurship and Competitiveness Africa. Known as EC-Africa, this program is offered by CBS Executive Education and equips African entrepreneurs with the skills, tools, and contacts to professionalize and grow their businesses in today’s global environment. Each company enrolls a team of two or three senior staff — CEO, founder, managing director, CFO, COO, or other leaders. The companies are all looking to scale. Each company is unique in industry and size, and typically ranges from $1M to $15M in annual revenue, and 10 to 500 employees. To learn more about the EC-America program and the enrolled companies, check out the EC-Africa website (https://business.columbia.edu/ecp)
The class is valuable not only for students who are going to work in management consulting after their MBA, but for everybody who wants to apply their learning from the MBA to the benefit of a company as well as those who want to sharpen their entrepreneurial skills. Through MCL, companies get access to CBS MBA students to work on a critical project. In return, MBA students experience a structured approach to learn 1) rigorous problem solving and project management skills, 2) client interactions, and 3) application of knowledge and skills learned in their coursework. The structure of the MCL course is very different than a normal class. The class is almost entirely project-based, and students are grouped into teams of three depending on their expertise.

The projects with companies from EC Africa, will also provide insights into opportunities and challenges for firms in Africa. Africa is the world’s second-fastest growing region – after emerging Asia – according to the African Development Bank Report. 1.3 billion people live in Africa and according to the United Nations, the population is expected to increase to 2.5 billion by 2050. The working-class population in Africa is growing by 2.7 percent each year (compared to 1.3 percent in Latin America and 1.2 percent in Southeast Asia). McKinsey projects that by 2025 two-thirds of the estimated 303 million African households will have discretionary income and consumer spending will reach $2.1 trillion.1 Not surprisingly, many firms and investors are viewing Africa as having tremendous of potential – but there are also uniq

Global Immersion: Doing Busine

Tunisia, the birthplace of the Arab Spring, was a crossroads of many civilizations from its indigenous Berber population to the Phoenicians who founded Carthage in 814 BC, to the Romans who destroyed Carthage in 146 BC after three Punic wars, to the Arabs introducing Islam and Arabic in the 7th century, to the Turkish Ottomans who ruled Tunisia from 1574 to 1881, and more recently to the French who occupied Tunisia from 1881 to 1956. This melting pot of more than 3000-year history is what distinguishes Tunisia from other countries in the Middle East and North Africa. Because of its free trade agreements with Europe and several countries in Africa and the Middle East, Tunisia can potentially become a gateway to a market of more than a billion people. As Tunisia is still going through profound political changes following the initial upheaval of the Arab Spring in 2011, there are many questions that await. Will it be able to create a business environment that is attractive to investors? If so, what investment opportunities exist in Tunisia? What are the risks involved and the future challenges? And, how best to enter such a market? The course will explore these questions with a focus on the entrepreneurship ecosystem and doing business in Tunisia. The course project involves working closely with start-ups from the region. The project provides a truly immersive, multicultural experience where students will partner, mentor, coach, and interact with young entrepreneurs, both online and offline.
Travel to Tunis will take place prior to the class meetings, January 14-20, 2024. A predeparture meeting will take place on Tuesday, December 5th, 12:30-2:00pm to prepare students for the pre-travel assignment and week of travel. For this course, the add/drop period will close on December 15th to allow for travel bookings to be finalized. No program fee refunds will be given after the add/drop period has closed. Students who require a visa to visit Tunisia will be assisted with this application given the tight timeframe so long as materials are received by the deadline; passports must have 6 months of validity beyond the travel date to apply for a visa. Students will need to submit requested visa backup materials to Chazen by December 5th. Citizens of the US, Canada and many European countries may travel without a visa; the full list of those who do not need visas can be found here https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a830dfd692ebe2c2963c329/t/5a985c6c9140b714127792f0/1519934573636/Visa%2BFor%2BTunisia_.pdf.

Global Immersion Program: Nordic Family

This course provides an opportunity to learn about family enterprise, the predominant form of business worldwide, along with stakeholdership, sustainability, and innovation, through theory and practice that goes far beyond a typical class experience. Students will delve into the driving forces behind these timely issues, with specific focus on the Nordic region as a leader in each area. After a series of classroom sessions in NYC, students will travel to Sweden and Denmark, countries that are not only major players in the Nordics but also vibrant economies, innovative business environments, leaders in social enterprise, and consistent (positive) outliers on global "happiness" ratings. Other unique regional issues include current challenges caused by immigration shifts, transition from the Nordic model, and strong governance norms. English language fluency and relative openness and transparency about family and business provide an open window into personal experience and insights not always available elsewhere. Through site visits with principals, business executives, and experts at start-ups, foundations, and family businesses, students will have a chance to ask questions and compare notes on doing business, being family, and leading innovation with a sustainable focus in another part of the world. There is no better way to learn about family enterprise innovative business models than at the source. The trip will also provide an opportunity for students to travel with their peers and exchange ideas about the cross-cultural experience as it is happening. This help students re-consider their perspectives upon returning home. For this course, the Nordic region is defined as Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden, and Norway. There will be six 90-minute sessions on campus during the A term, followed by a weeklong trip March 10 - 16, 2024, and a de-brief session after the trip on March 29th. Course objectives are: • Increase understanding of the global role and importance of family enterprises through in-depth focus on the Nordic region. • Experience "behind the scenes" looks and engage in open discussions with family principals, owners and next generation members • Learn about cutting edge innovation and sustainable social enterprise, including in the family office context. •Explore stakeholdership in the region that was at the forefront of developing this vision of business. • Provide point of comparison to cultures in which students live and work. • Examine aspects of ownership and governance, including the N

CRITICAL ISSUES IN THEATRE MANAGEMENT

CRITICAL ISSUES IN THEA M

The art of negotiation is a critical skill for stage managers to develop. Conflict resolution, communication, and collaboration are all aspects of theater that require negotiation on many levels. This course will explore these concepts and apply them to the real-world atmospheres in which stage managers must navigate these challenges effectively. Contemporary management texts, role-playing, guest speakers, and lectures/class discussion will illuminate the importance of negotiation as a tool that will be required of all stage managers no matter where they choose to work.

Global Immersion Program: Innovation in

Global Immersion Prgm: In

This course will focus on the startup economy in India. Student teams will work closely with a startup incubated by the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (IIMB) in the Fall A-term, as well as during our trip to Bengaluru (Bangalore), India.
Why focus on India? India, the world’s largest democracy with a population of 1.3 billion, is emerging as an important counterpoint to China from a geopolitical perspective. The US is leaning on India as a crucial ally; President Biden welcomed Indian Prime Minister Modi to Washington in June 2023 and said that the US-India relationship was "one of the defining relationships of the 21st Century.” The Prime Minister addressed the US Congress and received a standing ovation, although his visit also generated a fair amount of controversy. In late 2022, India’s economy overtook Britain’s to be the world’s fifth largest, and with a growth rate of about 8% it is likely to be the fastest growing big economy this year.
Why focus on innovation? Apart from conglomerates such as Reliance, Adani, and Tata, innovation and entrepreneurship are at the heart of India’s growing economy. Startups, often tech-based, have gone from providing e-commerce and ride-sharing services to the richest Indians to seeking opportunities at the global innovation frontier. The partnership with IIMB is a way for students to learn about the Indian startup ecosystem from founders in India, and for the startups to get some objective input and advice. Each startup is in a different industry and is facing different challenges. The project will help students develop experience working in cross-cultural teams and practice entrepreneurial and consulting skills. This promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime multicultural experience where students will learn from and consult with founders of cutting-edge Indian startups. Travel to Bengaluru (Bangalore) will take place October 14-21, 2023.

GLOBAL IMMERSION: UAE

Some of the questions that we examine include: What have been the main sources of growth for the UAE? What are the initiatives the government has taken to diversify the economy away from oil and to promote growth? What drives the dynamism of the UAE’s business environment and where do future opportunities lie? What role does the UAE play in global business, and how is this role evolving? What role might the UAE play in students' post-CBS careers and personal lives?
The course will consider the UAE’s business landscape from three lenses: (1) enterprises focused on the UAE, (2) UAE-based enterprises serving the GCC and MENA region, and (3) global businesses based in the UAE. To what extent is business in the UAE unique, and to what extent is it the same as business elsewhere?
Travel to the UAE will take place October 14-21, 2023. The group will be based in Dubai with day trips to Abu Dhabi and other emirates. During our week in the UAE, we plan to visit key institutions that help shape the business and financial environment in the country. During our on-campus sessions before we travel, we have guest practitioners share their expert perspectives on the UAE and the broader GCC region.

Art of the Vessel: Maya and Moche

Vessels bear functional and metaphorical meanings in nearly every culture and society. But situated meanings and social uses of vessels and containers vary as widely as their physical forms and decorative programs range. In this seminar, we will investigate traditions from two preeminent ancient American cultural settings: Maya—in southern Mexico and northern Central America—and Moche—on the north coast of Peru. Despite their contemporaneity during the first millennium CE, and some parallel aspects of their ceramic art traditions, Maya and Moche communities were not in direct contact with each other. The histories and environments of each area are so different, one from the other, that the kinds of research questions and interpretive methods that can be applied to each set of traditions are often inherently divergent. Comparative attention to these works can reveal much about their makers’ worlds and their artistic practices and ideals, as well as modern histories of these works have been regarded, collected, displayed, problematized, and reclaimed. Each student in this research-focused seminar will produce an original essay that makes use of online collections and/or museum collections in the New York area.
