Open only to microbiology students. Students doing dissertation research register for this course, as well as students who are rotating through laboratories of staff members.
Using the format of a research seminar highlighting research “challenges” of the DNSc faculty , this course is designed to strengthen the student’s ability to integrate and synthesize knowledge in statistics and nursing research methodologies, and to apply this integrated knowledge to common problems in study design and data analysis.
Supervised directed readings and literature review in areas relevant to a students research program.
This course focuses on an advanced topic in the philosophy of language.
Open only to students in the Integrated Program.
All matriculated graduate students are required to attend the seminar as long as they are in residence. No degree credit is granted. The seminar is the principal medium of communication among those with biomedical engineering interests within the University. Guest speakers from other institutions, Columbia faculty, and students within the Department who are advanced in their studies frequently offer sessions.
The residency focuses on the delivery of fully accountable scope, health care across the continuum of sites and patient needs. This residency requires students to apply the knowledge of: 1) diagnosis and management of ambulatory patients with complex diagnoses and comorbid conditions in the context of family, community and culture, 2) diagnosis and management of patients requiring interventions available only in an acute care setting and 3) diagnosis and management of patients who are unable to function independently due to age alterations and/or deficits in mental or physical status, developmental, perceptual and physical disability and chronic, degenerative illness. Sites include hospital based clinics, ambulatory centers, private offices, emergency rooms, walk-in clinics and acute/critical care units, labor and delivery suites in the hospital facilities and settings which provide hospice care, supportive care, home care, nursing home care, rehabilitative care, technologically dependent care and assisted living services. The DNP student will demonstrate an integration of comprehensive assessment, advanced differential diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and evaluation of care for patients and synthesis of evidence-based practice with patients with a variety of conditions. In this context, the DNP student will organize and develop a professional portfolio.

Volcanology is a young science. Whilst observations of volcanic phenomena and their impact on the atmosphere and biosphere have been recorded by humankind for potentially 36.000 years (Nomade et al., 2016; PLoS ONE 11, e0146621), it is only recently that volcanology has become a modern science. Some would date this event to 1841 and the creation of the Vesuvius Observatory, others to the observations of Lacroix following the 1902 catastrophic eruption of Mount Pelée, the deadliest in the 20th century. Regardless of the exact date, this science has quickly grown, mostly by using developments in physics, chemistry, and engineering. Today, about a thousand scientific papers on aspects of volcanology are published each month. From this myriad of publications a few have been especially impactful in forging our current understanding of how volcanic processes operate. In this seminar series we will explore these “classic papers” with an emphasis on physical volcanology.
The DNP student will complete the scholarly project requirement while enrolled in this course. The student will develop a poster, presentation, manuscript or other product that will need to be peer reviewed and accepted. Documentation of the product being accepted through peer review is required and should be uploaded into the student portfolio along with the final product. Dissemination of the scholarly project is required, for example, through presentation or publication. The DNP student will work alone or in a group of up to three people. This will be the final requirement for their professional portfolio.
This course prepares students to engage in theoretically-grounded research on contemporary issues in health, particularly reproductive and sexual health. We examine contemporary social science approaches to the analysis of gender, exploring their relevance to the development of researchable hypotheses on a range of topical issues. Through readings in social theory and ethnography, students will master key concepts and ideas, including structure and agency, gender stratification, social constructionist approaches, and bargaining theory. Students will critically employ these concepts both in the analysis of existing research work in areas such as fertility, HIV and STIs, and other topics and in the development of a critical literature review on a topic of their own selection.
The DNP intensive practicum focuses on the delivery of fully accountable, evidenced based care for patients across clinical sites. The DNP student will demonstrate an integration of comprehensive assessment, advanced differential diagnosis, therapeutic intervention, evaluation of care for patients and synthesis of evidence-based practice with patients with a variety of conditions. In this context, the DNP student will organize and develop a professional portfolio.

The DNP portfolio is designed to assist students in meeting CUSON DNP competencies as demonstrated in written case narrative and competency based clinical encounters. Students will be assigned a faculty member who will provide guidance in identifying appropriate patient encounters, reviewing and editing all written work associated with demonstrating competency-based learning. This course repeats sequentially for 3 semesters.
