Investing in Social Ventures
This half semester course provides students with the opportunity to perform due diligence on early-stage social ventures
(nonprofit and for-profit ventures with a social or environmental mission). This course is designed for MBA students
interested in impact investing, social entrepreneurship, or philanthropy. The objective of the course is for students to
learn both the theory of investing in early-stage social ventures and the practice of evaluating early-stage social ventures
through a due diligence process. This course is not designed for the evaluation of larger, well-established social
enterprises.
Students are placed in teams to evaluate social entrepreneurs from the Columbia University community who have applied
for funding from the Tamer Fund for Social Ventures. The course is a combination of in-class lectures and discussion, and
practical application of class lessons outside of the classroom. Major topics covered include: the due diligence process,
assessing venture pitches and teams, due diligence in emerging markets, due diligence of non-profits, impact
measurement and management, and valuations and deal structure.
During the course, each student team completes detailed due diligence on their assigned social venture, including
diligence on applicants, the social venture and the sector. The course concludes with student teams submitting a written
due diligence report and a recommendation for funding to the Investment Board of the Tamer Fund for Social Ventures.

COMM-BASED PARTICIPATORY RES
Prerequisites: Good Clinical Practices Certificate Exam; also 6727 and 8772 Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) has received growing attention over the past several decades as international, domestic, funding agencies and researchers have renewed a focus on an approach to health that recognizes the importance of social, political and economic systems to health behaviors and outcomes. The importance of this approach is reflected in the recent IOM report that CBPR which indicates that CBPR is one of the eight priority areas for improving the public health. CBPR is not a method but a system of investigation that involves the active collaboration of the potential beneficiaries and recognizes and values the contributions that community-based participatory research can make to new knowledge and to the translation of research findings into public health practice and policy. CBPR as it is often referred is a collaborative approach to research that recognizes the value of equitably involving the intended beneficiaries throughout all phases of program planning, implementation and evaluation.

Global Immersion: Lessons from Rwanda on
Global Immersion: Rwanda
Parts of Africa are now some of the most exciting regions of the world for business. A growing number of African countries have achieved steady, high growth rates during the last few decades. A wide range of sectors in these “lion” economies – commodities, tourism, agribusiness, eCommerce, oil and gas, retail, etc. – are buzzing with activity and attention from foreign investors and multinationals.
But how can companies and investors enter and operate efficiently in African countries? What challenges characterize the private sector in Africa, how do they vary with context, and what strategies can firms and organizations adopt to overcome them? Where can new MBAs interested in Africa add the most value?
Rwanda is a wonderful country to explore and address these questions. In 1994, Rwanda suffered a brutal genocide in which nearly 1 million people were killed in a 3-month period. In the years since the genocide, the country has rebuilt with remarkable results. Rwanda is now one of the safest countries in Africa. Rwandans now live side by side in peace, the country’s economy continues to grow rapidly, and Rwanda has made great strides in reducing poverty and increasing entrepreneurship, education, and access to health care. Further, the country has been praised for its handling of the COVID pandemic. Armed with frameworks and analytical tools from management and economics, we will meet with executives in Rwanda to understand the leadership practices, processes, and structures that have led to Rwanda’s remarkable recovery, reconciliation, current peace, and economic growth.
About the Global Immersion Program
Global Immersion Program classes bridge classroom lessons and business practices in another country. These three credit classes meet for half a term in New York prior to a one week visit to the country of focus where students will meet with business executives and government officials while working on team projects. Upon return from the travel portion of the class, students may have one wrap up meeting at Columbia Business School. The 2023-2024 Global Immersion Program fee for most classes is $1950 and provides students with double occupancy lodging, ground transportation and some meals; unless an increased fee is otherwise specified in the course description. It does not cover round-trip international airfare. Attendance both in New York and in-country and regular participation are a crucial part of the learning experience and as such attendance is mandatory. Stud

Business and Society
Business School offers important windows into the functions of business and into ways of conceptualizing challenges and opportunities. It also offers valuable cross-cutting tools for analysis, decisions, and leadership. But there’s more…: Very successful and admired business leaders think even more fundamentally and broadly about the economic, political, and social context of business decision making. They understand that the ‘corporation’ is a legal and social construct, not just an economic construct. Support for business corporations has not been and is not absolute and requires business leaders to examine the role of their business and business generally in the broader society — business and society. In contemporary language, what is the ‘purpose’ of business? For whom should the corporation be run? Answers to these questions and others shape business, business careers, and attitudes toward business.
Addressing such cross-cutting questions requires that we examine the business corporation and its role in society through multiple perspectives. In particular, we will study business and society through the lenses of the evolving business organization,
finance and investors, employees, corporate governance, privacy and big data, social movements, social justice, and climate change. To accomplish these views, we will draw on leading CBS faculty and their ideas. In each case, we will complement these ideas with the
experience of leading business practitioners as teaching partners. The introductory and closing sessions will feature longer conversations with a business leader on the role of business in society. Conducting the course in this way brings both ‘business and society’
and Columbia Business School’s ‘ideas, talent, and network’ to center stage.
You will also be co-creating this course with the teaching team. Your presence, preparation, and participation are vital to a successful class experience. The syllabus presents questions and readings to get you ready for our class discussion and analysis.
All of us on the teaching team look forward to working with you!

Africa in the World
The conceptual challenge of situating Africa historically in the contemporary world in a rigorous fashion—one that pays due heed to the continent’s own historical dynamics—extends back at least as far as W.E.B. DuBois’
The World and Africa
(1946). The nature of that challenge has, however, changed over time. The course offers an introduction to a conceptual problem fundamental to the practice of African history, and to thinking about Africa, not only as foundationally part of the contemporary world, but as active in its production.

LABOR RELATIONS & COLL BA
In the theatre, people are your greatest asset (and often the biggest expense in your budget). A good understanding of Human Resources, labor relations and collective bargaining is critical for any successful venture, organization or production. In this course, we will cover theory and law behind these topics and tackle practical application of the concepts in our unique employment environment. We will do simulation work on some of the most common challenges in labor and bargaining, all which will require coordination with your classmates in and out of class. Given the rapid pace of change in these areas, topics below are subject to change.

Independent Study - 1.5 credit
The Independent Study is available to students who would like to explore a significant research problem related to their professional needs; the nature and extent of this independent study are determined by the student and a faculty sponsor. In certain instances, professional work at an internship or other engagement may be appropriate for academic credit through the Independent Study; this should also be determined with the guidance of a faculty member.For the Independent Study, students are required to meet with the faculty sponsor a minimum of two times: once, for an initial planning discussion, and again in the middle of the semester to confirm that the project is on track. The student must provide written confirmation of this second meeting, signed by the faculty sponsor, to the Office of Student Affairs. Students are expected to commit to the original project plan approved by the faculty sponsor; any change to the topic or scope of the project must be agreed to by the professor prior to the midpoint of the semester. Students who fail to obtain this approval risk not receiving academic credit for the course.The student may register for an independent study only once in a term; the course may be taken for either 1.5 or 3 credits. The independent study is designed to be independent of the classroom experience; it may not be used asa means of adding a seat to a course with a full capacity.No more than six credits of Independent Study will be counted toward the MBA degree. (For dual degree students, the maximum number of independent study credits is 3.) The number of allowable Independent Study credits may be lower if the student has also taken B9002 Field Studies or cross-registered. For details, follow the degree requirements links at the bottom of the screen.Students should bring a completed Independent Study Application form, signed by the faculty sponsor, to the Office of Student Affairs prior to registration for the course.

Ifriqiya: Art and Architecture of Tunisi
Ifriqiya: Art/Arch of Tun
Modern-day Tunisia somewhat corresponds to the medieval Islamic province of
Ifriqiya
, and presents an interesting case for study. Located in the heart of the medieval Mediterranean, Ifriqiya is at the center of all
terrae—
Europe, Asia, and Africa—and therefore played a major role in the connectivity between them. Specifically, Ifriqiya was one of the major nodal points on the North-South axis between Europe and Africa; a group of small islands located between Tunisia and Italy provide the best naval connection between the two continents. Beyond the sea it was also a terrestrial hub for Sub-Saharan caravan routes. From ancient Carthage to medieval Tunis (and later Mahdia), it is no surprise that Tunisian ports attracted empires, and were thus exposed to looting, conquests, and occupations. Yet, the modern history about this region suffers from the usual West-East binary, separating Classical-Hellenistic and Roman history from Islamic, let alone Berber, eras rather than uniting the many narratives.
In this seminar, the different monuments, sites and museums of Tunisia, including Tunis, Carthage, El-Jem, Mahdia, Monastir, Sousse, Qayrawan and Reqada will be discussed. Ten selected graduate students will learn about Tunisia in its Mediterranean network, from the medieval up to the modern period, discussing questions around history, trade and visual culture from particular moments of artistic interactions with Abbasid Baghdad and Samarra, Al-Andalus, Norman Sicily, southern Italy, the Habsburgs and the Ottomans. The group will travel to Tunisia from
Friday, March 10 through Sunday, March 19
, to give onsite presentations and participate in discussions with Tunisian scholars.

THEORIES OF WAR AND PEACE
In this course we undertake a comprehensive review of the literature on the causes of war and the conditions of peace, with a primary focus on interstate war. We focus primarily on theory and empirical research in political science but give some attention to work in other disciplines. We examine the leading theories, their key concepts and causal variables, the causal paths leading to war or to peace, and the conditions under which various outcomes are most likely to occur. We also give some attention to the degree of empirical support for various theories and hypotheses, and we look at some of the major empirical research programs on the origins and expansion of war. Our survey includes research utilizing qualitative methods, large-N quantitative methods, formal modeling, and experimental approaches. We also give considerable attention to methodological questions relating to epistemology and research design. Our primary focus, however, is on the logical coherence and analytic limitations of the theories and the kinds of research designs that might be useful in testing them. This course is designed primarily for graduate students who want to understand and contribute to the theoretical and empirical literature in political science on war, peace, and security. Students with different interests and students from other departments can also benefit from the seminar and are also welcome. Ideally, members of the seminar will have some familiarity with basic issues in international relations theory, philosophy of science, research design, and statistical methods.

INTL SIGNALING & COMMUNICATION
Prerequisites: Instructors permission prior to registration.
The purpose of this course is to delve into how states infer what others are likely to do in the future and how they try to project desired images of how they will behave. This involves both purposeful or intended communication, as in diplomacy, and the ways in which perceivers try to discern others' capabilities and intentions from attributes and behaviors that the senders cannot readily manipulate.
We will examine a variety of theoretical and empirical approaches to the topic, many of which could seem mutually exclusive, but the goal of this course is not to determine which approaches and theories are ‘right’ and which are wrong, but rather to equip students with the tools and background they need to consider real and hypothetical interstate signaling interactions from multiple angles.

The Global Menstrual Movement: Understan
Glob Menstrual Mov: Pol &
In recent years, a global movement has begun around menstruation, ranging from research and policies addressing the barriers that school girls may be facing in low-resource contexts, to initiatives fighting the on-going stigma experienced by girls, women and people with periods in high- and low-resource contexts, to the advocacy focused on period poverty. How did this global movement begin? What is the existing evidence base for addressing menstruation as a public health issue? And what gaps remain? The purpose of this course is to provide students with a foundation on the topic of menstruation, including the existing research, program and policy approaches underway globally, to equip students with an understanding of the research methodologies most appropriate for understanding the experiences of those who menstruate, and the ways in which advocacy has served to shift attention to this fundamental issue. Students in this course will learn to analyze the current status of the global menstruation movement through debates, news media critiques, and a proposal addressing ‘new frontiers’ in menstruation. The course fits into the MPH curriculum in the Department of Sociomedical Sciences by increasing students’ knowledge and skills of key perspectives and approaches to research and intervention around menstruation that include social science theories

RESEARCH SEMINAR FOR PHD STUDENTS
This course will provide a structured environment in which graduate students will write a research paper. It will be offered in the spring and will not be field-specific. It will be recommended for first-year students in particular, who will be expected to enter from GR8910 (the required first-year course) and with a topic and/or prospectus for the paper they plan to complete in the course. The aim of the course is to ensure that all PhD students complete one of their two research papers within the first year. This seminar is recommended for, and restricted to, PhD students in the History Department. The aim of the seminar is to guide and assist students in the completion of a 10,000-12,000 word research paper appropriate for publication in a scholarly journal. The seminar is not field-specific, and students may work on any subject of their choosing. The paper must however be based on primary source research and represents a substantial departure from earlier work. The assignments for the course are designed to help students complete a polished piece of work by the end of term.

New Histories of International Law
New Hist. Int. Law
In this colloquium, we will explore the flourishing 21st century literature in the history of international law. Focussing on the complex and controversial relationship between law, empire & capitalism, readings will center on the period 1750-1950, and skew towards Europe, the Middle East, East Asia and Africa. The works we will study, however, also concern the uses and significance of historical perspective for the theory and practice of international law and politics today. They will enable us to reflect historically on the present, asking why it was that the period 2000-2020 produced such a strong interest in ‘critical’ histories of international law, concerned with the legacies of empire and colonialism; and wondering how the field might react to the increasingly ‘lawless’ world of the 2020s.

CHINESE MEDIA CULTURES
What is media and mediation? How do aesthetics, techniques and technologies of media shape perception, experience, and politics in our societies? And how have various forms of media and mediation been conceptualized and practiced in the Chinese-language environment? This graduate seminar examines critical issues in historical and contemporary Chinese media cultures, and guides students in a broad survey of primary texts, theoretical readings, and research methods that place Chinese media cultures in historical, comparative and interdisciplinary perspectives. We discuss a variety of media forms, including paintings and graphic arts, photography and cinema, soundscapes and the built environment, and television and digital media. The class covers a time span from mid-19 th century to the present, and makes use of the rich holdings at the Starr East Asian Library for historical research and media archaeology.
Open to MA and PhD students. Advanced undergraduates need to have instructor's approval.
Language prerequisites: intermediate or advanced Chinese; rare exceptions upon instructor’s approval.
