-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Cognitive Proseminar: Introduction to graduate level cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience for first year graduate students in psychology. Course serves as the basis for more advanced graduate courses on specific topics in this area.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
An introduction to quantitative methods in psychological research appropriate for first and second year graduate students. The topics covered include experimental design, null hypothesis significance testing, power, effect size, and confidence intervals. Specific procedures covered include ANOVA, ANCOVA, multiple regression, moderation, and mediation.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Students learn structural equation modeling (SEM), a statistical technique for testing and estimating causal relationships among variables using a comingatioin of data and qualitiative causal assumptions, and apply SEM to a current project. (If a student does not have a suitable project, one will be assigned). Class format is part lecture, part seminar.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Current research and issues in sensation, perception, and cognition. Ongoing research by seminar participants, research methodology, and current issues in the literature will be discussed.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
An advanced seminar that considers current research in social psychology. Contemporary research conducted by the seminar participants is discussed.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Graduate students go on to post doctoral, academic and research positions. Whatever position they go on to, there are a set of rules, usually implicit ones, that prevail for how the "successful" beginner acts. But the new Ph.D normally has not been instructed in what these rule systems are. At best they learn them inefficiently; at worst they violate them in ways that are damaging for their futures. The purpose of this seminar is to transmit a general understanding of these rule sets, and to teach the beginning person how to determine the exact forms they take in the settings into which they have gone.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Examination of issues in the responsible conduct of scientific research, including the definition of scientific misconduct, mentoring, authorship, peer review, grant practices, use of humans and of animals as subjects, ownership of data, and conflict of interest. Class will consist primarily of the discussion of cases. Required of all first-year graduate students in the Department of Psychology. Open to other graduate students.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
An intensive double credit course focusing on state-of-the-art experimental design and practice in quantitative biology. Emphasis is placed on functional genomics using global genome-wide measurements (e.g. microarray gene expression, sequence, phenotype) to understand physiological and evolutionary processes. Begins with a short introduction to technology and principles, followed by the design and execution of independent projects done by pairs of students in collaboration, with the continuing guidance and advice of the teaching staff.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Mathematical models of complex natural phenomena can organize large amounts of data, provide access to properties that are difficult or impossible to measure experimentally, and suggest new experimental tests of proposed regulatory mechanisms. Participants will demonstrate these ideas in the context of cell and developmental biology. Using a number of well-established experimental systems, such as dynamic instability of microtubules and circadian clocks, course introduces stochastic and deterministic models of reaction and diffusion processes and computational methods for their analysis.
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
The course objective is to learn basic ethics theory and develop practical tools for business ethics, with particular attention throughout the course to the role of religion and spirituality in ethical formation, frameworks, and decision making. This will be applied to contemporary business ethics case studies, and will include several guest CEO visitors.
