+Wavelets: Concepts
and Applications in Statistics This is course is meant to
provide students with both a solid background in the foundations of
wavelets and a detailed overview of a variety of statistical
applications. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to
evaluate whether wavelets will be useful in new problems, and if they
are, to work out basic methods of applying wavelets to such situations.
The course will primarily consist of class lectures/discussions with a
focus on applications and case studies. Computer demonstrations will be
used to enhance lectures. Students will be evaluated based on
performance on out-of-class assignments and in-class exams.

+P8713 Critical Issues
in Human Sexuality Across the Life Course This course is
designed to help students understand the major theories and principles
guiding an understanding of human sexuality as well as recent
developments in sexuality research; develop an understanding of
methodological and assessment health. The course emphasizes a
developmental approach to human sexuality across the life course and a
biopsychosocial model as a basis for understanding sexuality and health.
The course consists of presentations by invited faculty with expertise
in human sexuality; active student participation is encouraged. Students
are assigned required for each lecture. Five essays will be assigned
throughout the semester; grading on each essay will comprise 20% of the
total course grade.
+P8715 Breast Cancer as
a Public Health Issue This course provides a multi disciplinary
overview the complexity of breast cancer from the public health
economics, consumer advocacy, law, ethics, health education, government,
insurance, media. Topics will address the magnitude of the disease from
issues faced jointly by patients, their families and health care
providers. The course will combine lectures by faculty and guests and
student presentations.
+P8723 Culture,
Sexuality and HIV/AIDS This course offers a broad overview of
the historical development of social science research on sexuality and
sexual health. It is divided into three main parts. The first section of
the course examines early attempts (in the late nineteenth and early to
mid twentieth centuries) to develop a science of sexuality that would be
capable of providing objective and empirically-based understandings of
sexuality and sexual behavior as opposed to what were perceived to be
the value-laden and moralistic understanding of religious belief or
traditional popular culture. The second part of the course focuses on
the more contemporary development of social science research on
sexuality and sexual health, particularly during the 1960's and 70s (but
prior to the HIV/AIDS epidemic), in disciplines such as anthropology,
sociology and social psychology. Finally, the third part of the course
focuses on the significant changes that have taken place in sexuality
research following the emergence of AIDS, exploring the increasing
engagement between social science research and public health programming
as well as the constitution of sexual health as a new field of
specialization.
+P8741 Globalization,
Social Movements, and Community Health This course offers a
broad overview of the most important social, cultural, political, and
economic transformations taking place at the end of the twentieth
century and the beginning of the twenty-first century, and explores the
implications of these changes for community health in major urban
centers in the United States as well as internationally. It focuses on
the multiple dimensions of globalization, as well as the impact of
globalization for the development of new social movements at the
community level. It examines the ways in which processes associated with
globalization, such as growing disparities in income distribution and
the disappearance of work for major sectors of the urban population,
have impacted upon community health problems. It explores the
possibilities for community mobilization, advocacy and activism within
this broader social context, and assesses the extent to which community
health might be conceptualized as an issue of social justice within the
contemporary global system.
+P8744 Living with
Chronic Illness This course will review models of coping and
psychosocial adaptation to chronic illness. The focus will be on the
understanding the adaptive tasks (e.g. identity reconstruction, stigma
management, adherence to treatment regimens, symptom management) posed
by these illness and various coping strategies individuals employ in an
effort to master these tasks. Factors (e.g. sociocultural beliefs,
illness representations or schema, access to resources) that influence
individuals' psycho social accommodation to diverse chronic illness will
be examined. The opportunities for stress-related growth and benefit
finding among those living with chronic illness will also be examined.
There will be a strong emphasis on understanding patients' perspectives
on their "lived" experience with chronic illness.
