New York State Immunization Law
The New York State Health Department requires college and university students born on or after January 1, 1957 to be immunized against measles, mumps and rubella. All full-time and part-time students intending to register for 6 or more credits, in an approved degree or registered certificate program at the university, must show proof of immunity before they can register for classes. In addition, New York State requires that LIU Brooklyn maintain a record of each student’s response to the meningococcal disease and vaccine information regardless of their date of birth. The form must be signed by the student and contain either a record of meningitis immunization within the past 10 years OR an acknowledgement of meningococcal disease risk and refusal of meningitis immunization signed by the student. Students who take classes remotely, or who are and will not be physically present at the university are not required to provide proof of immunization. For information on student procedures for complying with this law, please contact Office of Campus Life at (718) 488-1042.

LIU BROOKLYN HONORS COLLEGE
The LIU Brooklyn Honors College is a nationally recognized liberal arts program for undergraduate students in all disciplines at LIU Brooklyn. It is designed to assist students to become critical and independent thinkers. That goal is accomplished through an enriched core curriculum in small, seminar-style liberal arts classes that stress student participation and independent learning. The Honors College also gives students freedom to design their own majors (see contract major). Within the university, the Honors College mission is to develop an active community of learners, providing opportunities for intellectual support, social interaction, and leadership development. The Honors College is active in national organizations representing honors students and undergraduate research. Honors College students are encouraged to shape their own education in a variety of ways. They may do so by taking a broad range of courses outside their areas of concentration, by attending national and regional conferences involving undergraduate research, and by participating in national and international Honors Semesters sponsored by the National Collegiate Honors Council (NCHC). Admission to the Honors College requires an additional application process. Once admitted to LIU Brooklyn, students should apply directly to the Honors College. For information, please contact the director's office at 718-780-4023, fax 718-780-4061 or email bkln- [email protected].

Student Health Insurance
Long Island University has partnered with Gallagher Student Health & Special Risk to develop a cost-effective Student Health Insurance Plan that provides our students and families with robust medical coverage at school, back home, and while traveling or studying abroad. The plan is fully compliant with Federal Health Care Reform and offers students and their dependents access to a network of doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies throughout the country. All international students, clinical students, residential students, LIU Global students, and intercollegiate athletes are automatically enrolled in the Plan but can waive participation online at www.gallagherstudent.com/liu if they have comparable coverage under a family plan or other policy. Students who enter during the spring and summer terms can also participate in the plan with shorter coverage period, reduced rates, and specific enrollment/waiver deadlines. Beginning on July 1st, students can go to their MyLIU account and click on the “Student Health Insurance” link from the Student Center Home Page to enroll in the Plan, print ID cards, check claims, or waive coverage. Coverage begins on August 15, which represents the start of the plan year, and extends through August 14. Remember that if you have been automatically enrolled in the plan and wish to waive coverage, you must go online and receive confirmation by the waiver deadlines listed below. If you require additional assistance, please call the Office of Student Financial Services at 516-299-2553. Enrollment Waiver Periods Annual Plan: July 1 - September 30 Spring Plan: January 1 - February 15 Summer Plan: May 15 – July 15 Annual Rates • Mandatory and Compulsory/Hard Waiver Students - $2,369 • Spouse/Domestic Partner - $2,369 • Each Child - $2,369 NOTE: New students who enter during the spring or summer terms will participate in the Plan with prorated coverage periods and rates.

Minor in Urban Studies
A 15 credit Urban Studies Minor is available for students seeking the conceptual and analytical tools necessary to understand a wide range of environmental, economic, social, spatial, and political challenges that are critical to the welfare of the billions of people living in cities around the world. The minor focuses on the three academic themes of urban geography, public policy, as well as political and social justice. The fourth emphasis is geographic methods. The urban environment has become increasingly more complex. Cities are the major engines of economic and technological growth for most advance societies. Cities have also become increasing interconnected through the global economy. Cities are the most important factor determining the welfare of societies as well as of individuals. In addition, students will have the opportunity to develop skills in geographic information systems (GIS), policy analysis and writing, as well as critical thinking about urban processes. All of these are highly valued by employers. The growth in GIS jobs, in particular, is above average and the jobs are well paid. Opportunities

THEATRE PROGRAM
The study of theatre entails intensive training in acting, voice and movement for the development of characterization in preparation for performance. The training provides a foundation for acting on stage, and on camera for film and television. Students also learn about the history of theatre, the visual elements of production, play analysis and participate in production and/or performance work. Students have the opportunity to perform in the main stage spring theatre productions and in smaller theatre pieces in the fall semesters. As a result, students gain valuable experience working in a large proscenium theatre as well as a smaller experimental theatre space. Students studying theatre who decide not to pursue an acting career may also go into other fields such as, working behind the scenes, directing, stage managing, producing and teaching. The experience and training that students gain in theatre will serve them in any field they choose to work in. Students interested in pursuing studies in theatre should consult with the theatre program coordinator, Professor John Sannuto 718-246-6405, [email protected]), and/or the department chair regarding class selection and graduation requirements.

SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
LIU Brooklyn's School of Education prepares teachers, counselors, administrators and school psychologists for the challenges and the rewards of working in urban settings. Through rigorous and stimulating programs of study, students have the opportunity to work in urban schools and in a broad range of educational and/or mental health settings to: develop an inquiry stance toward practice; integrate theory and practice; and achieve high standards of practice. Graduates of our programs acquire the experiential knowledge that is essential for interacting with and guiding children and families in urban communities. All specialties, undergraduate and graduate, within the Teacher Education Program are accredited by the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC). Our programs are designed to ensure that our graduates keep pace with changes and innovations in their chosen fields. The School’s KEEPS Mission, its urban location and its nationally recognized faculty, make it an exciting place to study! Structures Within the School of Education The School of Education comprises two departments: Teaching, Learning and Leadership (TLL) and Counseling and School Psychology (CSP) departments. These departments provide educational opportunities leading to rewarding careers serving urban youth and families. TLL offers undergraduate and graduate degree programs in multiple teacher certification areas and educational leadership. CSP offers graduate programs in school counseling, mental health counseling, marriage and family therapy, and school psychology, and applied behavior analysis. Our professors are experts in these fields, with a range of experience that enables them to bring best practices into the classroom. All programs incorporate fieldwork throughout the curriculum and draw upon long-term relationships with schools and organizations in New York City that offer placements that are well suited to students' needs and interests. Please consult the sections below describing in detail each department and its offerings. For information, please contact the Dean’s Office at 718-488-1055, fax 718-488-3472, or visit the website at www.liu.edu/brooklyn/soe.

SCHOOL OF HEALTH PROFESSIONS
The School of Health Professions at LIU Brooklyn is dedicated to providing superior quality education in the health professions to a diverse student body. With strong ties to the community and to many health care facilities that support educational efforts as well as research, our programs address clinical health care, community-based health and social issues. The school prepares students for careers in the areas of respiratory care; diagnostic medical sonography; physician assistant; occupational therapy; athletic training, health and exercise science (including sport management and exercise physiology); physical therapy; social work; and public health. The programs also introduce students to interprofessional practice. Our programs span the undergraduate, graduate and doctoral levels, and lead to careers in growing professions that offer a wealth of career opportunities. Graduates of our programs are in high demand in the current health care job market, and this level of demand will continue for many years to come. The School of Health Professions’ faculty members are renowned experts in their fields and have vast experience in their respective areas of specialization, which contributes to their exceptional teaching abilities. Many faculty members are engaged in clinical practice and research, which greatly contributes to the learning experience of their students and to their own professional growth. The School of Health Professions integrates liberal arts education with advanced sciences and health- oriented curricula. On the undergraduate level, it offers the Bachelor of Science degree in health science, respiratory care, diagnostic medical sonography and sports sciences, as well as the B.A. in Social Work. It also offers combined B.S./M.S. degrees in athletic training, and occupational therapy, and a B.S. Health Science/Master Public Health. All students are expected to complete 64 credits of liberal arts and sciences courses in addition to their specializations and professional studies. Proficiency and core courses for undergraduate programs are offered through Richard L. Conolly College.

Criminal Background Checks and Drug Testing
Many clinical/field experience affiliates, i.e., hospitals and clinics now require the completion of criminal background checks and/or drug testing for employees, volunteers and students affiliated with the site. Therefore, School of Health Professions students who plan to participate in a clinical/field experience may be asked to undergo a criminal background check, and/or a drug screen. A criminal conviction and/or the use of illegal drugs may impede or bar your entry into your chosen field of study. Students desiring entrance into the School of Health Professions should be aware that our clinical/field affiliates have the right to reject or remove a student from the site if a criminal record is discovered or if a drug test is positive. In the event that a student is rejected from a clinical/field site due to information contained in the criminal background check, or drug screen, you may be unable to complete a required clinical/field experience. If you are unable to complete program requirements, you may be advised to withdraw from the program. In addition, School of Health Professions students should be aware that the presence of a criminal record could result in the refusal of the licensing/ certification/registration agencies (NBRC and or state licensing board) to issue the credential or license to practice. Prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact pertinent state licensing board to inquire whether a criminal record, including driving offenses would preclude the individual from eligibility to obtain a license/certification.

LIU GLOBAL
LIU Global offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in Global Studies, a discipline that investigates the world’s interdependent political, economic, cultural and ecological systems. The discipline equips future leaders with tools to analyze challenges, issues and processes that transcend national and disciplinary boundaries, equipping them to develop solutions to these challenges at the local, national, regional and global levels. Students complete the Global Studies degree through four years of coursework and integrated field experience undertaken as they travel eastward around the world--from Latin America, to Europe, to Austral- Asia, and finally to the United States. They begin with the Global Studies foundation year in Central America. They then move in their second and third years, respectively, to Europe and then to China or Australia/Asia. In the first semester of their senior year they are placed in an international internship and carry out independent research; in the final Capstone Semester in New York City, they complete their senior thesis and enroll in a second senior internship. As students move around the world, they acquire the knowledge, skills and perspectives necessary to provide leadership in the Global Age. The Global Studies curriculum is made up of three kinds of coursework: • Area Studies courses and fieldwork delivered at each LIU Global Center or Program. Drawing on LIU Global’s decades of engagement with partners and communities around the world, these courses deepen students’ knowledge of the countries, languages and cultures of the region in which the center or program is located. The area studies courses combine classroom work with integrated field experiences and travel. (Consult the locations web pages for details of each program.) • Global Studies. Core courses and field work that build academic knowledge and skills across the program’s four years. This sequence of required courses, distributed systematically around the world, equips students with disciplinary lenses, as well as critical thinking, communication and research skills. The sequence culminates in a set of upper division courses in the last three semesters that include two senior-year internships and the completion of a senior thesis. • Minors in International Relations, Social Entrepreneurship and Arts & Communication. LIU Global students have the opportunity to pursue one or more minors of their choice in Social Entrepreneurship, International Relations, and Arts & Communication as they complete their coursework at the various centers/programs. All three minors require the completion of 15 credits of approved coursework which should be taken into consideration in students' academic planning. Global Studies is a relatively new discipline, offered by over three hundred universities around the world at both the graduate and undergraduate degree levels. For 50 years, LIU Global College (along with its parent institution Friends World College) has been a pioneer in the field. Long before anyone had thought about “global studies,” Morris Mitchell, the founder of Friends World College, asserted the need for an experiential, multidisciplinary approach to understanding the totality of humanity’s challenges. In 1965 he called the college’s pedagogical enterprise “world education.”

As a birthplace of revolutions and the political innovations that produced the European Union, Paris has produced a sequence of fundamental documents that have contributed to the contemporary international order, including the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the International Declaration on Human Rights, etc. At the same time, contemporary Paris is a maelstrom of difference where emigrants from the former Empire - Africa, Asia and the Islamic World - struggle to find representation within contemporary French and European institutions. Rome Against the background of the capital of the ancient Mediterranean world and headquarters of world Catholicism, students continue their study of the constitutional arrangements that have shaped Europe in the post-WWII era. Through interaction with organizations and political institutions in Rome, students investigate the European Union’s post-national political ideals and its place in the international system. It is also in Rome that the stage is set for students’ study of the relationship among the civilizations that have been shaped by the three Abrahamic traditions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), a theme that continues throughout the semester. Sarajevo The excursion to Sarajevo offers students the opportunity to carry out independent research on issues of religious and ethnic reconciliation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Until the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia in the 1990’s, Sarajevo was famous for its traditional cultural and religious diversity, with adherents of Islam, Orthodoxy, Judaism, and Catholicism coexisting in relative peace for centuries. Students explore the way in which this coexistence degenerated into violence and genocide when Yugoslavia fell apart at the end of the Cold War.

Students develop their placements. programs for IRIS during their third year in LIU Global. In the Junior Seminar, students identify a global challenge or issue that they wish to investigate in depth. They develop a bibliography that acquaints them with the scale and scope of the challenge, and then investigate the responses to this challenge that are being developed around the world. These responses may include policy, activist, or entrepreneurial solutions carried out in government, business, NGO, or community settings. Students then select a specific location from among the LIU Global IRIS sites where they are able to engage with the issue directly. They develop a research proposal that allows them to investigate both the issue’s local manifestation as well as the local responses to it. They also identify and secure an internship from one of LIU Global’s partner organizations whose activities are relevant to the students’ research. Students then execute their IRIS proposal in the fall semester of their fourth year. The IRIS Curriculum. The IRIS curriculum includes two required courses. Senior Thesis I assists students to refine and execute their research design, keeping them on track with methodology, documentation, and deadlines. This is an online course delivered to all IRIS students around the world by the Senior Thesis Coordinator. The Internship in Global Issues course assists students to prepare for, execute, and analyze their internship experience. This course includes an evaluation of the internship site’s impact on the student’s chosen issue or global challenge, as well as the student’s self-reflection on his or her role as an organizational player. Overseen by the IRIS advisor, the course is also the context for regular, scheduled mentoring throughout the semester. In addition to the two required courses, students identify opportunities that help them deepen their expertise. A set of Special Topics courses provides the framework for students to develop their expertise through their work with local experts, universities, or institutes (if relevant, these opportunities may include language study). This self-designed learning plan is part of the IRIS proposal, which is developed and approved during the Junior Seminar. The student’s
