SEMINAR IN STAGE MANAGEMENT III
MUSICAL STRUCTURE
Musicals, especially those that have traditionally originated on Broadway, are complex pieces of machinery that are designed to produce a variety of energies in the theater. When taken collectively, those energies constitute the aesthetic of the experience. As with plays, stage managers are charged with coordinating all of a musical’s production elements. However, stage managers should also be able to view a musical from every angle; that is, read it intelligently and analyze it dramatically so they can accurately gauge their contribution to the overall aesthetic. This course seeks to provide stage managers with a customized template to do that: in other words, how to connect what’s on the page and the stage to their own standard methodologies, cue calling, and the CEO/COO perspective. In the contemporary professional landscape, these are important tools that will help them optimize their work on musicals.

Coding for Media Studies
The term “digital humanities” (DH) has long been used to describe scholarship at the intersection of digital technologies and humanities disciplines. Although initially characterized by quantitative analysis and number-crunching, DH today enjoys a far broader mandate encompassing new fields like software studies, data visualization, critical code studies, and more. This course proposes to ride the wave of these developments.
Specifically, it explores how coding can be harnessed to the disciplines of film and media studies. Over the past few years, developments in generative AI have placed basic coding expertise within the reach of all. But what possibilities open up from these changes? Over the course of over a dozen weeks, students in this class will learn ways in which coding can help refine and reimagine traditional scholarly agendas (e.g., film analysis, media industry studies, archival restoration, etc.). But the class also shows how coding opens up entirely new ways of working with media as objects of study.

The Chinese Economy
When asking a Chinese citizen about a particularly puzzling aspect of China’s economy, the response will sometimes be
“
这是中国特色的“ or this is the Chinese way of doing things. In this course, we will think deeply about what exactly that means in terms of how China’s macro-economy and financial system operates and what are the policy implications for those differences. This course has three distinguishing characteristics: i. It uses modern tools from macroeconomics and finance to analyze the Chinese economy; ii. It compares and contrasts the Chinese economy with the United States as a way of highlighting what makes the Chinese economy (and incidentally the US economy) special; and iii. It treats a country like a company using methods from finance, accounting and management to shed new light on macroeconomic questions. While the focus of the course is, of course China, what students will also learn is how to think more broadly about all emerging economies. Many scholars have written about the significant steps in China’s development process since 1978. Wu Jinglian (2005) or Barry Naughton (2007 – see below), for example, provides excellent step-by-step descriptions of China’s remarkable path of economic progress from both before and after that critical year. This course takes a different approach from that very worthwhile historical/institutional approach in that it asks which tools from the modern economics and finance toolbox can and cannot be used to understand the Chinese economy and financial system. There will be both quantitative and qualitative aspects involved in our pursuit of that understanding. Every lecture will have a theory component, policy discussion component and data analytic component. By the completion of this course, students will know how to work with data related to the Chinese economy and how to go about thinking analytically about China’s economy and financial system. This will allow the student to intelligently answer challenging questions related to China’s current and future economic/financial circumstance.

International Law
MIA International Law Core.
This course introduces students to the foundational concepts and contemporary practice of public international law through real-world scenarios and current global developments. Each session blends structured legal instruction with scenario-based simulations, helping students connect abstract legal norms to strategic thinking, negotiation, and policy analysis. Designed for students without a legal background, the course emphasizes the practical relevance of international law to global governance, diplomacy, and transnational challenges.
Students will explore key elements such as treaty law, statehood, legal responsibilities of states and international organizations, and the creation of international norms. These core topics are examined in relation to major policy areas, including human rights, climate and the environment, global health, peace and conflict, and digital governance. Through interactive simulations, collaborative analysis, and case-based exercises, the course equips students with the knowledge and tools to engage with legal frameworks critically and apply legal reasoning to complex global issues.

Grad Sem III in Sound Art & Related Medi
Grad Seminar III in Sound
The Graduate Seminar in Sound Art and Related Media is designed to create a space that is inclusive yet focused on sound as an art form and a medium. Class time is structured to support, reflect, and challenge students as individual artists and as a community. The course examines the medium and subject of sound in an expanded field, investigating its constitutive materials, exhibition and installation practices, and its ethics in the 21st century. The seminar will focus on the specific relations between tools, ideas, and meanings and the specific histories and theories that have arisen when artists engage with sound as a medium and subject in art. The seminar combines discussions of readings and artworks with presentations of students' work and research, as well as site visits and guest lectures.
While the Columbia Visual Arts Program is dedicated to maintaining an interdisciplinary learning environment where students are free to use and explore different mediums while also learning to look at, and critically discuss, artwork in any medium, we are equally committed to providing in-depth knowledge concerning the theories, histories, practices, tools and materials underlying these different disciplines. We offer Graduate Seminars in different disciplines, or combinations of disciplines, including moving image, new genres, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, as well as in Sound Art in collaboration with the Columbia Music Department through their Computer Music Center. These Discipline Seminars are taught by full-time and adjunct faculty, eminent critics, historians, curators, theorists, writers, and artists.

ARTIST MENTORSHIP III
This required Visual Arts core MFA curriculum course, comprising two parts, allows MFA students to deeply engage with and learn directly from a wide variety of working artists who visit the program each year.
Lecture Series
The lecture component, taught by an adjunct faculty member with a background in art history and/or curatorial studies, consists of lectures and individual studio visits by visiting artists and critics over the course of the academic year. The series is programmed by a panel of graduate Visual Arts students under the professor's close guidance. Invitations are extended to artists whose practice reflects the interests, mediums, and working methods of MFA students and the program. Weekly readings assigned by the professor provide context for upcoming visitors. Other course assignments include researching and preparing introductions and discussion questions for each of the visitors. Undergraduate students enrolled in Visual Arts courses are encouraged to attend and graduate students in Columbia's Department of Art History are also invited. Following each class-period the conversation continues informally at a reception for the visitor. Studio visits with Visual Arts MFA students take place on or around the week of the artist or critic's lecture and are coordinated and assigned by lottery by the professor.
Artist Mentorship
The Artist-Mentor component allows a close and focused relationship to form between a core group of ten to fifteen students and their mentor. Students are assigned two mentors who they meet with each semester in two separate one-week workshops. The content of each workshop varies according to the Mentors’ areas of expertise and the needs of the students. Mentor weeks can include individual critiques, group critiques, studio visits, visits to galleries, other artist's studios, museums, special site visits, readings, and writing workshops. Here are a few descriptions from recent mentors:
• During Mentor Week we will individually and collectively examine our assumptions and notions about art. What shapes our needs and expectations as artists and the impact of what we do?
• Our week will include visits to exhibition spaces to observe how the public engages the art. Throughout, we will consider art's ability to have real life consequences and the public's desire to personally engage with and experience art without mediation.

Rising, Rejuvenating, or Revisionism: Ch
China and the Int'l Order
China’s ascendency or rejuvenation is one of the defining political events in the 21st century. Chinese imprints expand widely on the present Liberal International Order (LIO), ranging from traditional security issues—such as military modernization, maritime disputes, nuclear nonproliferation, and cybersecurity— to non-traditional security areas, such as humanitarian intervention, climate change governance, and human rights. Will China be destined for a “New Cold War” with the US, given its national power, regime type, ideological features, and/or racial and ethnic identities? Could Beijing be accommodated by Washington to escape the tragedy of the “Thucydides’ Trap”? In this seminar, students will examine the core concepts and theories in International Relations (IR), security studies, and International Political Economy (IPE), and learn to critically apply them to current events. Importantly, students are expected to reflectively juxtapose these theoretical frameworks derived from Western historical contexts with theoretical analysis and empirical cases from Asian epistemic communities, and understand the applicability and validity of conventional IR canons, such as power transitions and security dilemmas. In essence, this course equips students with historical analogies, theoretical tools, and empirical cases to directly get China right, rather than understanding this country as an analogy to European historical experience.

Japanese Foreign Policy
This graduate seminar course provides an overview of modern and contemporary Japanese foreign policy and the strategy behind its engagement with the world. It examines the following questions: What are the key determinants of Japanese foreign policy, and how have they evolved over time? How should Japan approach, navigate, and shape the increasingly uncertain strategic environment in the Indo-Pacific in the years ahead, including China’s growing power, the shifting role of the U.S.-Japan alliance, and the intensifying great power rivalry? In the first few weeks of the course, we will cover the making of modern Japan and the enduring themes that have long animated Japan’s strategic thinking. In the following weeks, we will survey Japan’s foreign policies toward key countries and regions while discussing topics relevant to the respective relationships, such as security, trade, identity, historical memory, and values and norms. Each week, we will identify Japan’s ends, ways, and means in its approach to a particular region or issue and end our class by discussing current policy questions Japan faces.

What Is An Image?
How can we define the image in the digital age? Can we (still) believe our eyes? What is underneath the image? As we will see in this course, these fundamental questions are not new within the history of media. Through the ages, the image has been questioned and redefined as image, surface, visual representation, index, etc. Philosopher Vilém Flusser once remarked that the composite essence of digital technology was already embedded in photography because the photographic image is an image composed of points, which the human eye synthesizes into an image. This course revisits Flusser’s notion of the “technical image” and proposes to rethink the image beyond its visual dimensions, from the perspectival image of the Renaissance to the AI-generated image of today. Instead of following a strict chronological path, we will delve into various theoretical debates on “what is an image?” – ranging from the binary image of textile to the haptic image of video art, from the technological image of the optical toy to the operational image of surveillance and warfare. Both mainstream and experimental films will be analyzed and discussed as critical interventions in the history of image technologies.

INTRO TO WRITING STUDIES
Anyone who pursues a career as a college faculty member will teach writing—either formally, in a writing class, or informally, as we work with students who are new to our disciplines. However, many graduate students in the humanities have received no substantive training in the burgeoning field of writing studies. In English, career opportunities in writing studies have outpaced other field areas. The MLA’s 2016-2017 jobs list reported that 851 positions were advertised in English, 10% fewer than the previous year. Of those jobs, 217 were in writing studies, 187 were in British literature, and 172 were in American literature. Given that writing studies positions are also advertised elsewhere, the gap is likely larger. This seminar will explore key debates in writing studies research and teaching methodologies, program development, and disciplinary and institutional status. Writing studies is the newest name for “rhetoric and composition,” a field which declared its existence in the mid-1960s, and draws its praxes and theories from classical rhetoric, applied linguistics, cognitive and developmental psychology, literary criticism, civic education, creative writing, and progressive pedagogy. Scholarship in writing studies since the 1960s has sought to deepen our understanding of how transactions work among writers, readers, and texts. Writing studies prompts us to track how standards for “good” or “appropriate” academic writing change over time, and how the teaching of writing responds to social, political, institutional, and disciplinary forces. The readings in this course will help us to articulate our own philosophies of writing and shape approaches to pedagogy in our own fields. Topis will include the following: how writers develop; intellectual practices that foster community among learners; the ethics and politics of textual transactions, including assessment; students’ rights to their own language; literacy acquisition across media; working in transnational and translingual spaces; genre and rhetorical theory; fostering knowledge and skills transfer; the impact of intersectionality on pedagogy and program design; and labor justice. We will read works by foundational writing studies scholars including John Dewey, Wayne Booth, bell hooks, Victor Villaneuva, Jr. A. Suresh Canagarajah, and the current president of the Modern Language Association, Anne Ruggles Gere. Participants will have the opportunity to ask how writing studies can deepen the understanding of writing in our fields, regardless

What is the lure of conspiracy theories? Are there particular reasons that conspiracy theories thrive in American culture? Do different media forms and platforms encourage the spread, and even transform the content, of conspiracies? What is the difference between theory in the social sciences and humanities and conspiracy theory?
