In the summer and autumn semesters, the Workshop emphasizes management issues. Students enroll in small, faculty-advised project teams and design a detailed operational plan for addressing an important public policy problem. Each Workshop faculty member selects a piece of proposed but not yet enacted state, federal, or local environmental law (or a U.N. resolution) and students are asked to develop a plan for implementing and managing the new program. In the summer semester, the Workshop groups write reports explaining the environmental science aspects of a management problem to political decision-makers who are not scientists. During the autumn semester the Workshop completes the operational plan for implementing the program. Both the summer and autumn Workshop projects will be on issues central to the two earth systems problem themes that the cohort will focus on throughout their course of study.

This class explores the creative and narrative principals of editing through the editing of students' 8-12 minute films and / or other footage. Instructors are professional editors who will provide lecture and individual based instruction. This version of the course is noncredit and for Research Arts students only.
Research work culminating in a creditable dissertation on a problem of a fundamental nature selected in conference between student and adviser. Wide latitude is permitted in choice of a subject, but independent work of distinctly graduate character is required in its handling.
All graduate students are required to attend the departmental colloquium as long as they are in residence. Advanced doctoral students may be excused after 3 years of residence. No degree credit is granted
This is a Public Health Course. Public Health classes are offered on the Health Services Campus at 168th Street. For more detailed course information, please go to Mailman School of Public Health Courses website at http://www.mailman.hs.columbia.edu/academics/courses
Meets one Tuesday every month from June 2021 through May 2022, from 6-9pm. Dates are listed below, but there may be times when class dates will have to change. All classes will be taught via Zoom.
Overview:
The class will meet once monthly and will focus on the following:
1) Students’ thesis work - class will analyze, advise, give notes on, support, and discuss each person’s work over the year during the development, prep, production, post-production, and marketing periods of work for each thesis project. 2) Exploration of skills necessary to transition to working in the film industry after graduation. Topics include resume workshops, web site creation, film festival strategy, financing strategies, rights clearance, and press kit creation. 3) CU alums and other guest speakers will discuss their transitions from film school to working in the film industry, and will discuss their areas of expertise: TV producing, feature film producing, development, representation, networks and studios, teaching as a career, etc.
Prerequisite: the qualifying examination for the doctorate. Required of doctoral candidates.
Required for all first-year PhD graduate students in the Biological Sciences program. The research of members of the faculty is presented.
Each week invited speakers present seminars and have conferences with graduate students after each presentation.

This resident-centered faculty-guided seminar course offers the orthopedic resident an opportunity to reflect and revisit their clinical experience with a specific patient for the purpose of providing the most comprehensive and highest quality care in the future through self-assessment, clinical development, evidence gathering, and professional reflection. Residents bring their own clinical experience to share in the course and will reflect on the evaluation and management of one patient/client case involving the lower quarter. Residents will analyze the clinical decision-making process, actual and potential modifications to the plan of care, and the outcomes of the case from the broad perspective of all International Classification of Functioning domains and the specific focus of advanced orthopedic practice. Consideration will be given to insightful analysis of the best available evidence, the advantages and biases of clinical experience, and deductive and inductive critical thinking in the pursuit of expert practice. Emphasis will be placed on the impact of such analysis on future clinical decision-making and future case management.
