Causal Inference Workshop
This 14-week workshop designed for the students in the PhD program in Sustainable Development covers the fundamental theory and techniques of causal inference. Specifically tailored to students trained in econometrics and positioned to conduct interdisciplinary research, it systematically ties back the econometrics approaches covered to the underlying statistical framework and provides the students with the tools to conduct rigorous empirical analyses, and share and defend their approach in front of both economics and non-economics audiences. Lower-year students learn the fundamental methods for observational studies, upper-year students discuss how they employ them in their own current research. Participants are presented with the most common methods in the field, their limitations, and best practices, and introduced to underused statistical methods for causal inference.

Incorporating Genetics and Genomics in A
INC GENETICS & GENOMICS
This course is intended to provide a strong foundation in the concepts of genetics and clinical applicability of genomic concepts commonly seen in advance practice nurses’ clinical practice. Both classical Mendelian and molecular genetics will be examined, in order to provide a knowledge base that will enable the advanced practice nurse to integrate genetic and genomic knowledge into clinical practice. Using a case discussion approach, clinical issues of genetics testing, genetic exceptionalism, individualized risk assessments and predictions are explored throughout their life span.

Capstone: Critical Thinking and Analysis
CRITICAL THINK/ANALYSIS I
Critical Thinking and Analysis in Environmental Health Sciences is a culminating experience for EHS students in which they will synthesize the knowledge and experiences they have gained in their MPH core, department specialization and certificate coursework. The primary objective of this course is to enable students to critically examine and analyze a body of scientific knowledge and to effectively communicate such knowledge to lay and scientific audiences. An interactive, highly participatory experience, it typically focuses, in depth, on one or two topics within the field of Environmental Health Science that are of current national and international interest and represent a major human public health concern. The Capstone course will reinforce fundamental concepts acquired through prior departmental and certificate based coursework related to the underlying scientific basis of human health concerns arising from environmental exposure. The pedagogical approach of this course will utilize a combination of outside reading, didactic instruction, engaging class discussion and team-based learning. Students will be required to critically evaluate current knowledge and present, both orally and in writing, the broad outlines and specific aims of a research proposal to address critical gaps in understanding. At the completion of this course, students are expected to be able to critically evaluate and assess scientific evidence as well as successfully conceptualize, create and defend a research proposal. The ability to communicate research concepts and clear, cogent and well thought out research proposals, either orally and written, are essential for many students preparing entry into the workforce, whether in government service, profit or non-profit corporations, academia, scientific research, policy and planning, administration or regulatory affairs. Graduating EHS MPH students are expected to have considerable facility in public speaking skills, interpretation of scientific literature, critical thinking and analysis of published research findings. Each semester, in consultation with the class, a relevant and timely topic is selected to examine in depth. Creation of a NIEHS-style grant application concerning a previously unaddressed topic is an important component of this class.

THEOR-TRANSMISSN/COMMUN FORMN
TRANSMISSION
This is a course designed for first- and second-year graduate students who are interested in the issue of community formation, lineage, genealogy, transmission, and translation, whether textual or cultural. Course texts will be a combination of theoretical interventions and case studies drawn from major religious traditions. The learning goals of the course are the following: (1) to introduce seminal interpretive and/or methodological issues in the contemporary study of transmission; (2) to read several theoretical “classics” in the field, to provide a foundation for further reading; (3) to sample, where possible, new writing in the field; and (4) to encourage students to think of ways in which the several issues and authors surveyed might provide models for their own ongoing research work.
