Students further develop essential interviewing and counseling skills via counseling dyads. Emphasis is placed on conducting counseling over an extended period of time and working with culturally diverse individuals with a focus on the therapist's identity. Students will develop advanced communication skills, heighten self and interpersonal awareness, become more mindful of how the counseling process develops over time, start the process of practicing socially just counseling, and explore ways individual differences may manifest themselves in communication and connection.

Frequent student presentation of current or completed projects. Designed for composers, performers, audio programmers and engineers.

A continuation of the principles covered in E85.1035. The semester is divided into three modules - Room Acoustics, Physics of Vibration and Issues in Synthesis and Sound Design - designed to address critical yet broad areas concerning the science and art of producing sound in space. Students are responsible for hands-on projects on each modules, quizzes on reading assignments and a final project.

Biochemical, physiological, and clinical factors that affect the role of macronutrients in human health and disease, with an emphasis on critical analysis of recent research studies in this field. May also include topics such as cholesterol, fiber, non-nutritive sweeteners, & alcohol.

Biochemical, physiological, and clinical factors that affect the role of micronutritients in human health and disease, with an emphasis on critical analysis of recent research studies in this field. Includes the role of selected vitamins and minerals in cancer, coronary heart disease, HIV infection, bone loss, and other conditions of topical interest.

The principles of orchestral scoring are examined through detailed score analysis and writing projects, as well as related topics including transposition, score format, and new notation. Classical through contemporary styles.

This hands-on course provides the students with a practical toolkit to enable them to become proficient orchestrators in the field of film and media production. Using examples from traditional and contemporary practices, students analyze seminal scores written for the screen, orchestrate diverse exercises, and evaluate the result of their work by listening to live recordings of their exercises.

This course enables the student to independently examine and reexamine a patient or client with musculoskeletal problems by obtaining a pertinent history from the patient or client and from other relevant sources by performing relevant systems review, and by selecting appropriate age-related tests and measure. The courses also enable the student: to provide direct physical therapy interventions to achieve patient/client outcomes based on the examination and the impairments, functional limitations, and disabilities.

Writing of a full-length play or musical. Plays of special merit considered for program production.

The role of music and clinical improvisation in treatment will be explored for all clinical populations. Case material from each student's clinical internship will be examined and developed. Musical resources and strategies will be developed for us in individual and group therapy.

This course is intended to introduce students to the theory and practice of several of the major drama therapy approaches exclusive of role method and theory, the primary approach is taught as NYU. Through both an experiential and didactic process, students will learn the major concepts and practices of developmental transformations and playback theatre and/or related approaches to drama therapy.

Basic technical and conceptual principles of painting through in-the-studio practice. The relationship between form and content (technique and concept) is informed by art history and theory. Such processes as palette orientation, paint manipulation, and canvas preparation are discussed as well as contemporary painting practices. Individual and group critiques, slide lectures, and museum and gallery visits support studio activities.

Projects selected by students to reflect their artistic preoccupation or to provide research in particular skills, subjects, or trends in art and media. Students develop major art projects that Are fully realized and represent an evolution from sketches to a finished book. Students may work in photography, video art, or digital art

Projects selected by students to reflect their artistic preoccupation or to provide research in particular skills, subjects, or trends in craft arts such as glass, metalsmithing and fiber.

This course examines the processes that inform how one makes the object and its connection to the visual. The goal of the course is to help the student sharpen his/her point-of-view and to develop constructive motivational tools. To aid in the process we will address the conflict between such binaries as: art and craft, art and ideas and the social and physical space of art. Our method will include individual studio meetings, group critiques, presentations and exhibitions of art. Readings and exhibitions will be assigned according to students" particular research needs. They may include; Philip Fisher, "Making and Effacing Art"; Craig Owens, "Beyond Recognition: Representation, Power and Culture" and James Hillman, "The Dream and the Underworld", as well as student suggested readings
