There Are No Sidelines: Universal Health Approaches to Firearm Injury Prevention Part 2 — APA2449.02) (cancelled as of 12/13/2021

Instructor: Susan Sgorbati
Credits: 1
Despite decades of political advocacy for gun control, the health toll from firearm misuse in the United States has only continued to rise. Firearm-related injuries and deaths remain among the most urgent, unsolved health emergencies facing our country because society has not yet implemented comprehensive health-based solutions to treat gun violence. The primary obstacle to

Thermal and Statistical Physics — PHY4108.01

Instructor: Hugh Crowl
Credits: 4
In the wake of the Industrial Revolution, physicists developed thermal physics as a way of improving the efficiency of steam engines. At nearly the same time, the development of statistical physics gave birth to an understanding of how large ensembles of particles interacted. We will study both the macroscopic (“Thermal”) and microscopic (“Statistical”) view of systems and the

Thermal Physics — PHY4104.01

Instructor: hugh crowl
Days & Time: TBA
Credits: 4
The simple concept of Temperature is not so simple. In this class, we will investigate the meaning of temperature and how what we know about thermodynamics and entropy informs our view of the physical world. Such an investigation is fundamentally statistical, so we will build a statistical view of physical systems and use that understanding to broadly study such topics as the

Thesis Forms: Artist's Book — DAN5414B.01

Instructor: Emily Wexler
Days & Time: TBA
Credits: 2

Through individualized meetings, the course will support students in developing and completing written components of the thesis artist’s book. These meetings will be opportunities for discussion and feedback, aiming towards the composition, annunciation, vision, and eloquence of each artist’s written and critically expressive voice. As another component of the

Thesis Forms: Thinking Partner 1 — DAN5423B.01

Instructor: Donna Faye Burchfield
Days & Time: TBA
Credits: 2

Students propose, plan, discuss and develop a (research) thesis project. They choose a thinking partner to work alongside and begin the processes.

Each graduate student in the program completes a final thesis as the culmination of their work towards the MFA degree. The thesis takes two forms: an artist’s book and a public project, Research as Action.  In each

Thesis Forms: Thinking Partner 2 — DAN5426B.01

Instructor: Donna Faye Burchfield
Days & Time: TBA
Credits: 2

The record of the processes and research practices take shape in the writing and designing of the artist’s book. The Research as Actions are discussed and planned. These actions are shared informally and at the conclusion of the term.

Thesis Forms: Thinking Partner 2 — DAN5427B.01

Instructor: Donna Faye Burchfield
Days & Time: TBA
Credits: 2

Each student in the MFA LR program proposes and develops a thesis/research project alongside a thinking partner. There are three components to the project which must be completed to graduate.  They are the portfolio & its companion artist’s talk, the artist’s book, and the research action. Students must also submit a precis at the conclusion of all three components.

Thesis Forms: Thinking Partners 1 — DAN5423B.01
