Graduate Certificate in Applied Behavioral Science The Certificate seeks to train a new kind of social scientist who understands the social and economic changes that impact contemporary communities, can utilize a variety of research methodologies, is sensitive to ethical issues in applied behavioral research and teaching, and is comfortable in settings of ethnic, cultural, and racial diversity. Graduate Certificate Program in Environmental Policy iThis certificate is a response to the fact that environmental issues — water policy, wilderness preservation, air quality, energy development, and global change — transcend ordinary academic boundaries. Policy analyses to deal with these problems must integrate insights and information from many different disciplines. Professional Certificate in Museology The Certificate provides professional training for graduate students in Anthropology and other disciplines to prepare those students to work in museums - an important job sector as opportunities tighten in university departments. Museums are one of the most effective means for disseminating scholarly knowledge and fostering critical thought, through experiential learning validated by the authenticity of the object. Museums show us the “real thing.” Graduate Interdisciplinary Certificate in Development Studies The proposed Graduate Certificate in Development Studies is intended to provide inter-disciplinary training for developing specialized knowledge in one of five focused streams within development studies: i) environment and development; ii) the economics of development; iii) governance and development; iv) population and development; or v) gender and development. Full details can be found at: www.colorado.edu/geography/dart/resources/development_studies_certificate.htm Peace and Conflict StudiesThe study of
conflict management and peace development had become something
of a metadiscipline within
the academic world and the program at the University of Colorado
had been instrumental in that evolution. It assumes
a broad concept of peace; a process which requires preventing violence,
disarming
the world, meeting human needs, protecting human rights, resolving
conflict without violence, insuring social justice, truthseeking.
Students with an intellectual and ethical commitment to such peace-supportive
study and action find in the program a way to prepare themselves
as
professional peacemakers. Graduates can take the path of mediator,
human rights activist, classroom peace educator, social development
specialist, legislator, advocate, mass media communicator, or environmental
dispute settler.
Dual Degree in Business and Anthropology In recognition that business education and training has relevance in other fields, the Boulder MBA program offers a dual-degree program with anthropology. Students can begin this three-year dual-degree program in either the department of anthropology or the school of business. In the second year, all course work is taken exclusively in the other department. The final year offers students the opportunity to mix business and anthropology electives. Program in Museum and Field Studies The Museum and Field Studies Section of the CU Museum offers students a mutlidisiplinary course of study leading either to a Master of Science Degree (MS) or a Graduate Professional Certificate in Museology. There are two tracks of study in the Master of Science degree program: the Collections/Field track and the Public/Administration track. Students completing the MS will be prepared to be collections managers, curatorial assistants, registrars, museum educators, exhibit technicians, and administrators. The MS degree is also valuable to students who wish to become outdoor educators, interpreters, or naturalists. Institute of Behavioral Science For over four decades, the Institute of Behavioral Science (IBS) has provided a setting for interdisciplinary, collaborative research on problems of societal concern. By engaging faculty from all of the social and behavioral sciences at the University of Colorado at Boulder, the Institute has encouraged work that transcends disciplinary boundaries, that illuminates the complexity of social behavior and social life, and that has important implications for social policy. In addition to fostering research, the Institute assumes responsibility for the dissemination of information about research findings. The Institute deliberately focused its attention on a small number of key research programs, each of which is interdisciplinary in its faculty: the Research Program on Population Processes, the Research Program on Political and Economic Change, the Research Program on Environment and Behavior, and the Research Program on Problem Behavior. A fifth program, on Health Behavior, is currently being developed. Founded in 1989, the Center of the American West uses the resources of the University of Colorado to explore, debate, and celebrate the distinctive qualities of the West. The Center of the American West makes the walls of the university permeable by facilitating the exchange of information and ideas in a critical dialogue about the West. By uniting the insights of the humanities, the physical sciences, and the social sciences, the Center informs Westerners about public policy and thus enables our citizens to shape desirable futures for our communities. Its projects include: Justice for All, Tracking the Changing West, Western Futures, Listening to the West, Native Hands, Urban/Rural Divorce, and Energy Initiative. Center for Youth in Science, Culture, and New Media The Center, led by Dr. Eisenhart, an educational anthropologist, has among its goals: 1) to provide scientific, technological and communications services to socio-economically underrepresented communities; 2) to conduct community-based research; 3) to help university researchers learn from community-based resources; and 4) to collect and disseminate research on youth, culture and community-based knowledge. The center currently sponsors several projects in the Five Points community of downtown Denver. Among them, "Simply the Best!" offers three sets of after-school science and technology classes for girls and "Literacy and Learning for Life" is an after-school program designed to foster elementary reading and writing skills by using seniors from the community as tutors. The Center is an interdisciplinary organization at the University of Colorado located on the Boulder campus. One of the main goals for the Center is to provide outreach to students both on the university campus and schools in the Denver-Boulder Metro Area. One of the main outreach areas, for example, is the area K-12 community. Both CAS and its sister organization Teaching East Asia (TEA) provide this community with undergraduate interns and graduate students who study Asia who can give presentations on aspects of Asian language, culture, and society in order to help teachers instruct students about Asia and encourage them to learn more about this fascinating and diverse region of the world.
