AN INTRODUCTION TO New York University

he founding of New York University in 1831 by a group of eminent private citizens was a historic event in American 1832 education. In the early 19th century, a major emphasis in College of Arts T and Science higher education was on the study of Greek and Latin, with little 1835 attention to modern or contemporary subjects. The founders of New School of Law York University intended to enlarge the scope of higher education to 1841 meet the needs of persons aspiring to careers in business, industry, School of Medicine science, and the arts, as well as in law, medicine, and the ministry. 1865 The opening of the University of London in 1828 convinced New College of Dentistry Yorkers that their city, too, should have a university. 1886 The first president of New York University’s governing Graduate School of Arts council was , former adviser to Thomas Jefferson and Science and secretary of the treasury in Jefferson’s cabinet. Gallatin and 1890 The Steinhardt his cofounders said that the new university was to be a “nation- School of Education al university” that would provide a “rational and practical edu- 1900 cation for all.” Leonard N.

Of the more than 3,000 colleges and uni- School of Continuing and Professional Studies versities in America, only 60 institutions are members of the dis- 1938 tinguished Association of American Universities. New York Robert F. Wagner University is one of the 60. Students come to the University Graduate School of from all 50 states and from 140 foreign countries. Public Service The University includes 14 schools and colleges at six 1948 Post-Graduate major centers in Manhattan. In addition, the University operates Medical School branch campus programs in Westchester County at Manhat- 1960 tanville College and in Rockland County at St. Thomas Aquinas School of Social Work College. Certain of the University’s research facilities, notably 1965 the Nelson Institute of Environmental Medicine, are located in Tisch School of the Arts Sterling Forest, near Tuxedo, New York. Although overall the 1972 University is large, the divisions are small- to moderate-sized Gallatin School of units—each with its own traditions, programs, and faculty. Individualized Study Enrollment in the undergraduate divisions ranges 1963 Mount Sinai School between 100 and 6,500. While some introductory classes in of Medicine some programs have large numbers of students, many classes are (affiliated) small. More than 2,500 courses are offered, leading to more than 25 different degrees.

INTRODUCTION • 11 12 • COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCE A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE College of Arts and Science

he history of the College of Arts and Science begins with the founding of the University by a number of prominent New Yorkers, led by Albert Gallatin, a mem- Tber of Jefferson’s cabinet. Unlike other institutions at the time, it was to be nonsec- tarian and to produce a different sort of elite citizen, not born to privilege but set apart for leadership by talent and effort. To that end it provided a more practical education, what the 19th century called “Useful Knowledge.” Thus, in addition to offering the standard classical curriculum, early NYU was also a center for science. Samuel F. B. Morse, after whom the current core curriculum is named, invented the telegraph while teaching art and design; John W. Draper invented modern photography; and the American Chemical Society was founded here. In the arts and culture, too, it can be argued that the College not only participated in but also generated much of the creative energy that has characterized Greenwich Village. The original University Building housed ateliers that were the forerunners of the current downtown art scene. And although Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was turned down for a teaching post, literature thrived, with University Building even featured in a 1861 novel by Theodore Winthrop. Finally, this neighborhood and this institution have had a long tradition of social and political activism—from the Stonecutters Riot over the construction of the University’s first building in 1834 to the tragic Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in 1911, a major event in U.S. labor history that took place in what is now the Brown Building. From its earliest days, then, the College on Washington Square has been at the cut- ting edge of intellectual, cultural, and social developments. In 1895, however, NYU’s great chancellor, Henry MacCracken, decided to reserve Washington Square for the professional schools, which had proliferated under his leadership, and to move University College to a beautiful campus in the Bronx—University Heights—designed by Stanford White. The College’s move to the Heights reflected MacCracken’s “Ivy” aspirations for the school and his successful effort to raise quality by attracting the best students nationally. Also relevant was the ascendant, nonurban collegiate ideal of a residential community, with fine teaching, extracurricular activities, fraternities, and intercollegiate athletics. A few years later an undergraduate presence was restored downtown with the open- ing of a Collegiate Division (1903), soon to become Washington Square College (1913). This school had a more diverse student body, opening its doors to women, recent immi- grants, commuters, and professional students. For over 60 years, undergraduate liberal arts education at NYU took place in two locations—University College (and the Engineering School) at the Heights and the College on Washington Square, both offering excellent, but different, educational and social experiences.

22 • INDEX TO MAJORS AND MINORS The Morse Academic Plan

DIRECTOR OF THE MORSE ACADEMIC PLAN: he Morse Academic Plan (MAP) of the College of Arts and Science is an integrated Associate Professor general education curriculum in the liberal arts. The MAP is named for Samuel F. B. Borenstein TMorse, an early faculty member of the University. Best known as inventor of the DIRECTOR OF THE electric telegraph, Morse taught fine arts at NYU and was an eminent painter. In his EXPOSITORY WRITING PROGRAM: breadth of talent and high achievement as both an artist and scientist, Morse symbolizes the Professor Hoy range of skills and interests that the MAP is designed to foster. The MAP provides a core academic experience for undergraduates at NYU. Through a challenging array of foundational courses the program heightens cultural aware- ness, hones critical reading skills, promotes creative and logical thinking, and gives students extensive practice writing and speaking English and proficiency in at least one other lan- guage. Rather than specifying a fixed canon of knowledge, the MAP focuses on modes and methods of humanistic and scientific inquiry. In each case, students are free to pursue par- ticular interests by choosing among a number of courses. Students examine our contempo- rary culture—its origins and social structures, its modes of expression, and its inherent diversity and evolving patterns of thought. In other classes, they consider the place and importance of modern science—its quantitative and analytical foundations, its processes of reasoning, and its relationship to technology and to our views of the natural world. By help- ing them to broaden their perspectives, gain new pathways for intellectual inquiry, and develop the skills, background, and social awareness to thrive in dynamic circumstances, the MAP thus seeks to prepare students for their later studies and to equip them well for lives as thinking individuals and members of society.

AMERICAN STUDIES • 31 PROGRAM IN Ancient Studies Minor

25 WAVERLY PLACE, NEW YORK, NY 10003-6790. 212-998-8592.

ADVISER: he chief intent of this minor is to allow students the possibility of significant and Professor Peachin (Classics) structured interdisciplinary work in ancient studies. The adviser for the minor (in Tconsultation with faculty from the student’s major department) is responsible for ensuring that each student’s experience remains cohesive. Nonetheless, this minor adheres to the principle of flexibility and inclusiveness. Each student will build the sort of experi- ence that is most appropriate to his or her needs or desires. This means that the boundaries (temporal, spatial, conceptual) will remain permeable. Each student’s course of study is designed on an individual basis, guided by the student, the student’s adviser in his or her own major department, and the adviser from the ancient studies minor. A number of CAS departments and programs, as well as institutes and centers, are directly involved in this program: anthropology, classics, comparative literature, East Asian studies, English, fine arts, Hebrew and Judaic studies, history, Irish studies, linguistics, Middle Eastern and Islamic studies, and the Alexander S. Onassis Program in Hellenic Studies. The minor consists of five 4-point courses, normally to be selected from the appro- priate offerings of the departments listed above. All five of the courses selected must be offered by departments other than the student’s major department, and not more than two may be taken in any one department. Students are furthermore expected to examine at least three different civilizations or cultures in completing this minor. Language courses may not be used to fulfill the requirements of this minor. It is also required that students who choose this minor com- plete, as a capstone experience, an independent study course. The adviser for the ancient studies minor may assist students in designing a project and in finding an appropriate fac- ulty member to direct this independent study. All programs must be approved by the ancient studies adviser before the student begins to take courses that would fulfill the minor requirements.

Major the- oretical emphasis is on the systems of thought and symbolic representation of the self and society; the relation between female and male domains of interaction; changing patterns of social organization and hierarchy within small-scale societies, urban settings, and bureau- cratic institutions; medical anthropology; science studies; race and ethnicity; and the prob- lem of ethnographic representation in film and other media. Departmental resources include an extensive film and video collection as well as teaching and research labs for archaeology, linguistic anthropology, and biological anthro- pology, which can be used for research by advanced undergraduates. A regular colloquium series and an undergraduate student association welcome undergraduate participation. For- mal and informal cooperative arrangements with museums, zoos, and other academic pro- grams in the greater New York area place at students’ disposal a group of anthropological scholars, materials, and resources unparalleled in this country.

ANTHROPOLOGY • 37 PROGRAM IN Asian/Pacific/American Studies (15) Minor

269 MERCER STREET, SUITE 609, NEW YORK, NY 10003-6687. 212-998-3700.

DIRECTOR OF THE he Asian/Pacific/American Studies Program provides an interdisciplinary approach PROGRAM: Associate Professor Tchen to understanding the history and contemporary experiences of Asian/Pacific Amer- Ticans in the Americas. The category of Asian/Pacific American includes people of East , , , and the Pacific Islands living in the United States as well as in other parts of the Americas. This program takes a critical community studies approach that uses research as the central methodology to examine the relationship between theory and practice and between structure and agency in the study of A/PA com- munities. Students develop important analytical skills that will help them negotiate today’s multiracial, multiethnic environment, as well as gain a level of cross-cultural awareness and skills that will be useful to them in any field of study they choose to enter. The two main areas of concentration for this program are urban studies and dias- pora studies. Urban studies examines the formation of A/PA communities in relation to the various cultural, social, and political institutions in urban settings, with special emphasis on the New York metropolitan area. Diaspora studies investigates the processes that enable A/PA communities in the United States to sustain ties with communities throughout the world. To study these two areas of concentration, the program insists on an interdisciplinary approach that takes into consideration analyses of cultural production—social, political, and economical processes—as well as cross-cultural conflict and collaboration. In coordination with the program, the A/P/A Studies Institute brings renowned artists, scholars, writers, and activists to campus. This provides the opportunity for discus- sion, performance, and reflection with students, faculty, and community members.

CHAIR OF THE DEPARTMENT: he Department of Cinema Studies at the Tisch School of the Arts holds a preeminent Associate Professor place among cinema studies programs in the country. Its approach to cinema studies Straayer Tfocuses on the processes of understanding film and the moving image in its multiple DIRECTOR OF UNDERGRADUATE cultural and interdisciplinary contexts. The undergraduate program treats the study of cinema STUDIES: both as an art form and as a form of mass culture. The study of film, as an art, is concerned Associate Professor Simon with the relationships among film style, narrative form, and the material practices that shape the medium. The study of film as mass culture explores how film reflects societal values and processes of social change. The department offers courses in the history, theory, aesthetics, and criticism of film, as well as film genres and techniques. Certain film courses given in the College of Arts and Science may also be approved for the major or minor. Most of the Tisch courses include extensive film screenings and are supplemented by a weekly cinémathèque. Students also have access to extensive film and film-related resources in the department’s George Amberg Study Center. The video collection in the Bobst Library’s Avery Fisher Center for Music and Media provides additional resources. Finally, various New York City institutions make this an extraordinary environment for cinema studies.

This broad interdisciplinary approach to these GRADUATE STUDIES: T cultures that have had a major role in shaping values and thought provides an Professor Peachin excellent undergraduate education, and classics students go on to careers in education, law, medicine, business, and the media. The department offers courses both in the original languages and in English trans- lation. Several majors and minors are available, some in conjunction with other departments (history, fine arts, anthropology, Italian, medieval and Renaissance studies, and comparative literature) and with the Alexander S. Onassis Program in Hellenic Studies. Academic internships, an honors program, and individualized study are also available. Classroom instruction is supplemented by a variety of activities. In addition to lec- tures and field trips sponsored by a lively Classics Club, students have access to the superb collections of antiquities at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the American Numismatic Society, and the Pierpont Morgan Library, as well as access to the department’s own collection of antiquities. Finally, various opportunities for travel and study abroad are available in Greece, Italy, and other Mediterranean sites.

The Department of Comparative Literature encourages students to pursue theoretical and philosophical modes of reading and to understand the importance of engaging texts in the original language by taking advanced courses in a national literature and studying the practice of translation. To interrogate how literature is enmeshed in nonliterary contexts, comparative literature majors develop exper- tise in relevant related disciplines such as art history, philosophy, history, anthropology, and cinema studies. Comparative literature departmental course offerings include lecture classes in world literature and interdisciplinary studies that provide a transition from MAP into the major and small seminars where students work intensively with a distinguished faculty com- posed of scholars in African, Caribbean, Russian and Slavic, Latin American, Chinese, and Japanese areas as well as specialists in the European and Anglo-American traditions.

Professor Leahy Despite the fact that the department is large, student-faculty rapport is excellent, with advanced and honors students working individually with professors. The economics faculty is involved in active research, using the University’s excel- lent computer facilities and libraries. Many faculty members are associated with research institutes. The C. V. Starr Center for Applied Economics, directed by Professor Jonathan Eaton, bridges the gap between academic research and decision making in business and gov- ernment. It analyzes issues with important economic and social consequence and dissemi- nates the results of its research to the business community through a series of conferences, monographs, seminars, and research papers. The Institute for Economic Analysis, directed by Edward Wolff, is an institute that explores theoretical and empirical questions using input-output as a primary tool of analysis.

DIRECTOR OF THE MORSE ACADEMIC PLAN: he Foundations of Contemporary Culture (FCC) sequence of the Morse Academic Associate Professor Plan seeks to provide students with the perspective and intellectual methods to Borenstein comprehend the development of our human cultures. The four FCC courses ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF T THE MORSE ACADEMIC introduce students to the modes of inquiry by which societies may be studied, social PLAN FOR FOUNDATIONS OF CONTEMPORARY issues analyzed, and artistic activity explored. Together they give undergraduates a broad CULTURE: Clinical Assistant methodological background on which to draw when later engaged in the more focused Professor Renzi work of their major courses of study. As a result, students receive a richer education than any single major could provide. Through this core experience in humanistic and social-scientific inquiry and its focus on a number of similar readings across different course sections, the FCC framework allows students to enter into dialogue with one another despite differences in their course schedules and in this way also encourages lifelong habits of intellectual curiosity and engagement. As they learn the sound employment of the academic approaches at the center of their FCC classes, students develop their abilities to read critically, think rigorously, and write effectively. By building these skills and an appreciation of the diversity of human experience, the FCC seeks to prepare students for their continued learning in and beyond college, for active participation in their communities, and for lives in a rapidly changing world. All FCC courses are taught by regular faculty, including some of the University’s most distinguished professors. In addition to two lectures a week, every FCC course includes recita- tion sections led by graduate student preceptors, allowing for small-group discussion of the readings, close attention to students’ written work, and personal concern for students’ progress.

The objectives of the FSI sequence are to give students Professor Rodriguez who will not be science majors a positive experience in scientific inquiry and to encourage learning about how science is done. The quantitative component of these courses emphasizes the critical role of mathematics in the analysis of natural phenomena. The courses within the FSI are collected into three groups—Quantitative Reasoning, Natural Science I, and Natur- al Science II.

he freshman honors seminars program offers select freshmen the opportunity to be in a small, intellectually stimulating class taught by a distinguished faculty mem- Tber or eminent visitor. These seminars aim to introduce students, at the beginning of their college careers, to demanding and challenging standards of analysis and argumentation, oral as well as writ- ten. They do so by means of intensive discussion, papers on focused topics, and reading that emphasizes critical interpretation rather than absorption of information. Except where noted, the seminars do not assume any specific course or background on the student’s part. Enrollment is usually limited to 16 students. As a rule, the seminars are given only in the fall semester. The array of seminars changes from year to year. A brochure describing all the fall offerings and their instructors appears in . Below is a sampling of Freshman Honors Seminars that have been taught more than once in recent years.

DIRECTOR OF UNDER- core, the program encourages students to question the meanings of “male” and GRADUATE STUDIES: T “female,” “masculine” and “feminine,” “straight” and “queer,” “deviant” and “normal,” in Associate Professor Haney both Western and non-Western societies. Courses seek to unravel the ways gender and sex- uality come into being and shape social roles and identities, as well as the ways in which other social and cultural divisions such as race, class, and ethnicity function in the experi- ence of gender and sexuality. The Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies challenges the privileging of some categories (e.g., male or heterosexual) over others, and analyzes the social and political implications of such hierarchies. The curriculum makes gender and sexuality central rather than peripheral terms of analysis and seeks to complicate what is presented as “natural” or “normal” in traditional academic curricula.

Minor programs are available in German language and in German literature Associate Professor Ulfers in translation. COORDINATOR OF THE LANGUAGE PROGRAM: Along with its German language programs, the department offers interdisciplinary Dr. Dortmann courses taught in English, which address issues of German culture, history, philosophy, sci- ence, art, and literature for students who do not have German language skills. An extensive program of individualized study, with flexible credit and meeting options, allows students to work one-on-one with faculty members to pursue topics of individual interest. The department sponsors the activities of the German Club and of the Tau Chap- ter of Delta Phi Alpha, the national German honor society, as well as a series of annual awards in recognition of outstanding achievement by undergraduate students in the study of German language and literature. Deutsches Haus, the German cultural center at NYU, provides a varied program of films, concerts, lectures, and exhibitions. The Department of German places high priority on fostering personal contact between faculty and students, maintains relatively small class sizes (15 or fewer students on average), and offers comfortable spaces for socializing, studying, and holding informal meet- ings. Advanced courses and some basic language courses are taught by full-time faculty members, all of whom are also involved in student advising.

DIRECTOR OF UNDER- tion to the contexts in which people have lived and worked. By mastering this GRADUATE STUDIES: H method of thinking, students of history gain invaluable skills and techniques. They learn to Professor Gordon analyze and interpret many different kinds of evidence—cultural, social, economic, and political—to organize it into a coherent whole and present it clearly with style in written or oral form. In doing so, students also learn to justify and to question their own and oth- ers’ conclusions, for history is always an argument about what actually happened. Indeed, rethinking and revising accepted historical conclusions is one of the most important—and most interesting—tasks of the historian. Notable among the department’s areas of scholarly strength are American urban, social, labor, and ethnic history; medieval, early modern, and modern European history; and American and European women’s history. The sub-Saharan African, Latin American, and Asian areas are also strong and tend to be multidisciplinary. Through independent study and the honors program, students find challenging opportunities for special concentration and indi- vidual research. The internship program enables students to engage in special kinds of super- vised historical projects for credit. Many of the projects are at cultural institutions in New York and at the United Nations. The University’s Elmer Holmes Bobst Library is rich in works of history, and stu- dents also may also use the collections of the New York Public Library, the historical soci- eties and museums in New York City, and neighboring universities.

DIRECTOR: he Program in International Relations is an honors major that seeks to provide stu- Professor Denoon dents with an understanding of the global system’s past, the tools to function effec- Ttively in the present, and the ability to foresee and respond to developments. The pro- gram recognizes and critically engages the changing nature of the contemporary political and economic environment and seeks to lay an interdisciplinary basis for understanding these changes. It provides students with an opportunity to study the complex web of transnational politics in an in-depth, interdisciplinary fashion. The breadth of courses is designed to match the breadth of knowledge and skills that the field requires. Fluency in a foreign language and a semester of study abroad at a site where that language is spoken are required of all majors to help ensure that they acquire a deeper understanding of a country’s culture and institutions. Majors are also encouraged, though not required, to take advantage of the many internship opportunities that are available in New York City to students of international relations.

DIRECTOR: reland and its diaspora present an extraordinarily significant and rewarding area of Professor Lee intellectual inquiry. The study of Irish society and culture provides students with an Iunderstanding of Ireland’s historical experience—its colonial past; its contribution to literature, both medieval and modern; its far-reaching effect in the modern world through its diaspora; and its dual language tradition and rival national narratives. The Irish studies minor at NYU offers an interdisciplinary program providing students with the opportu- nity to study and pursue directed research in the history and culture of Ireland and Irish America, exploring such areas as literature, history, drama, politics, art, cinema studies, music, and the Irish language. A faculty of internationally renowned scholars is supple- mented by the regular presence of prominent visiting professors. In addition to the program at Washington Square, NYU in Dublin gives students the opportunity to study in Ireland during the summer. Through the generosity of Lewis L. and Loretta Brennan Glucksman, two landmark houses at Numbers One and Two Washington Mews were renovated to serve as the home for Ireland House. Since its official opening in 1993, Glucksman Ireland House has become one of the most vibrant centers of Irish and Irish American arts and learning in North Amer- ica. It offers a lively array of programs that are free to students, including evening courses, public lectures, conferences, films, exhibits, and readings.

CHAIR OF THE DEPARTMENT: t New York University, we believe that journalism has a serious public mission and Associate Professor can make a difference. We want to educate those who agree. Opportunities abound Rosen in the media world, but the opportunity to do compelling work that informs, ASSOCIATE CHAIR OF A THE DEPARTMENT: engages—and matters—is what drives our faculty, motivates our students, and informs our Associate Professor entire approach. Great journalism has always come from the great cities of the globe, and Sternhell there is no better place to learn the craft than the city of New York—where power and DIRECTOR OF UNDER- wealth concentrate, news and culture originate, and daily events fascinate. GRADUATE STUDIES: Clinical Associate Centrally located in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, the department immerses stu- Professor Ludlum dents in the richness and vitality of the city, while attracting to campus many of the lead- ers and thinkers in the journalism profession. New York City is our laboratory—and our inspiration. The very first lesson we offer students is this: Tap into it, with our help. NYU students study as interns in almost every major news organization in the city. They often graduate to jobs in newspapers, magazines, broadcast outlets, and online operations head- quartered in New York, though some choose to go elsewhere. And every day, students move outward from the classroom to the city, on assignments that take them all over town. The full-time faculty is itself of national stature in the journalism world. As writ- ers, reporters, producers, and critics, NYU professors continue to practice the journalism they teach and preach, holding the profession to its highest standards of public service. Course work begins with the basic skills of reporting, writing, and research, but simulta- neously students are taught what journalism at its best can be—and what it should accom- plish in a free and democratic society. They are also encouraged to publish their work, with assignments, internships, and online projects geared to this end. Housed within the arts and sciences core of a leading university, the department sees journalism as an essential strand in the liberal arts tradition and a critical factor in pub- lic culture. But we also recognize that news these days is a business. When our skilled grad- uates enter that business, they are prepared to improve and enliven it. Department facilities include four state-of-the-art newsrooms, modern broadcast production facilities, the wire service, and desktop publishing.

The discipline of linguistics is organized around syntax (the prin- ciples by which sentences are organized), morphology (the principles by which words are constructed), semantics (the study of meaning), phonetics (the study of speech sounds), phonology (the sound patterns of language), historical linguistics (the ways in which lan- guages change over time), sociolinguistics (the interaction of language with society), psy- cholinguistics, and neurolinguistics (the representation of language in the brain). Current research by faculty members extends across the field: it includes topics in the interaction of syntax and semantics, phonetics and phonology, languages in contact, pidgin and creole lan- guages, urban sociolinguistics, and computer analogies of syntactic processes.

MATHEMATICS • 141 PROGRAM IN Medieval and Renaissance Studies (65)

THE MEDIEVAL AND RENAISSANCE CENTER, 726 BROADWAY, ROOM 628, NEW YORK, NY 10003-9580. 212-998-8698.

DIRECTOR OF THE PROGRAM: he undergraduate Program in Medieval and Renaissance Studies is part of the Professor Ivry Medieval and Renaissance Center (MARC). It focuses on the history, institutions, lan- Tguages, literatures, thought, faith, art, and music of Europe and the Mediterranean world from the collapse of Roman authority to about 1600 C.E. It is during this important period—which shaped and transmitted the classical heritage—that the social, artistic, intel- lectual, and scientific culture of present-day Europe and the Middle East was formed. The curriculum in medieval and Renaissance studies links undergraduates with NYU’s outstanding humanities faculty, with the superb libraries, museums, and collections in the New York area, and with musical and theatrical performances of works from this peri- od that are given regularly in the city. It also enriches students’ intellectual and artistic expe- rience in CAS programs abroad.

285 MERCER STREET, 7TH FLOOR, NEW YORK, NY 10003-6607. 212-998-8090.

DIRECTOR OF THE PROGRAM: he Program in Metropolitan Studies is an undergraduate, interdisciplinary program Professor Walkowitz for the study of cities, urban issues, and urban culture. Using New York City as

MANAGER OF their laboratory, students work to understand the relationship between people and INTERNSHIPS: T the built environment. In their course work, students develop a critical understanding of Betts Brown how metropolitan areas evolve while examining those areas’ core problems. The program exploits one of NYU’s major assets—its New York City location—in a variety of ways. Students learn through assignments involving independent fieldwork, observation, and analysis in both Manhattan and the greater metropolitan area. All majors participate in an internship program enabling them to work in government or nonprofit agencies while participating in a seminar linking their practical experience with theoretical and historical issues. There is an honors program for qualified students culminating in an extended senior thesis. The program draws on faculty active in the city’s government, community, and non- profit agencies. The major provides particularly valuable preparation for students interested in law, health, teaching, journalism, social work, architecture, city and regional planning, public policy, public administration, nonprofit administration, and community organization. An accelerated B.A./M.P.A. arrangement exists with NYU’s Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service. For more information, see Preprofessional, Accelerated, and Specialized Programs.

CHAIR OF THE DEPARTMENT: hilosophy poses general questions about reality, knowledge, reasoning, language, and Professor Boghossian conduct. The four main branches are metaphysics (What is the ultimate nature of

DIRECTOR OF UNDER- reality? What really exists and what is mere appearance?); epistemology (What, if GRADUATE STUDIES: P anything, can be known and how?); logic (What are the principles of correct reasoning?); Professor Richardson and ethics (What is moral value? And what moral values should we adopt?). Other, more specific, branches of philosophy address questions concerning the nature of art, law, medi- cine, politics, religion, and the sciences. Everyone tends to have or assume answers to these questions. The aim of the depart- ment is to enable students to identify, clarify, and assess these answers, both ancient and modern. Philosophy prepares students for a more reflective life, for advanced studies in the subject, as well as for professions that emphasize analytic thinking and argumentation, such as law, business, and programming.

DIRECTOR OF UNDER- T GRADUATE STUDIES: Many graduates of the program enter law school. However, the orientation of the Professor Cohen department is not strictly preprofessional, and its students are well prepared to enter a num- ber of fields: teaching, business, journalism, government (including the foreign service), social work, urban affairs, and practical politics. For details on the undergraduate program, consult www.nyu.edu/gsas/dept/politics/undergrad/undergrad_requirements.shtml. The department sponsors a Washington Semester Program for which a limited number of students are accepted each semester. For details of this program, consult the director of undergraduate studies and www.american.edu/washingtonsemester/4.apply/4.0.html. The honors program provides an opportunity for outstanding students to under- take specialized advanced work and independent research during their junior and senior years.

broad liberal arts education—which includes a general education (MAP) and a major in a liberal arts discipline or interdisciplinary field—provides a sound foun- Adation for many careers in business. The skills and perspectives of the liberal arts— in analysis, communication, etc.—are practical as well as personally enriching. Liberal arts students, however, can considerably enhance their preparedness for business by also com- pleting a small number of more specific courses. In consultation with the Undergraduate College of the Leonard N. Stern School of Business, the College of Arts and Science has iden- tified a set of such courses. These courses—some offered by CAS and some by Stern—are incorporated in the minor in prebusiness studies. By completing this CAS minor, students will have acquired core knowledge and quantitative skills that are invaluable assets for suc- cess in the business professions. Intended especially for students interested in the humanities, the minor in pre- business studies is open only to students in CAS and is administered by the college office. Students considering the minor should consult with the prebusiness adviser in the College Preprofessional Advising Office. This person’s responsibilities include advising prospective and declared minors, evaluating the applicability of transfer credit, approving course sub- stitutions when warranted, and meeting with Stern on matters of CAS/Stern articulation.

The minor consists of six courses, as tive Reasoning for the Behavioral Sci- Foundations of Financial Markets Program indicated below. ences (Psychology), V89.0009 (4 C15.0002 4 points.

SILVER CENTER, 100 WASHINGTON SQUARE EAST, ROOM 905, NEW YORK, NY 10003-6688. 212-998-8130.

ublic policies affect almost every aspect of our lives. Decisions by state, local, feder- al, and international organizations influence the quality of the environment, access to Phealth care, international development, and the emergence of a global media indus- try. The minor in public policy, jointly developed and administered by the College of Arts and Science and the Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, is designed for undergraduates interested in understanding such key issues and problems of the modern world and in approaches to dealing with them. This interdisciplinary, interschool minor offers students a meaningful cluster of courses in a professional area where the liberal arts disciplines can provide important per- spectives. It also furthers several related goals: it links the classroom to the city, encourages students to apply their theoretical learning, and provides a minor that is coherent and sub- stantial, in that it entails five courses. An executive committee of College of Arts and Science and Wagner School of Pub- lic Service faculty oversees the public policy minor. For each track, there is a designated adviser to students. For communications and the media, it is Professor Michael Ludlum, Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, 10 Washington Place, Room 605B, 212-998-7972. For health, it is Ms. Ruchel Ramos, Wagner School, 4 Washington Square North, Room 24, 212-998-7477. For international development, it is Professor Roman Frydman, Department of Economics, 269 Mercer Street, Room 830, 212-998-8967. Also available to advise students in this minor is Ms. Anne Blatz, a staff adviser in the College Advising Center, Room 905, Silver Center, 212-998-8130.

The minor currently features three least three of the courses are to be no more than two may come from Program different tracks: (1) communications selected from the list of courses for any one department. and the media, (2) health, and (3) the chosen track; two may be from Note: Courses counted toward international development.

Students preparing for careers in law, social service, health, pub- lic administration, and other professional areas will find sociology an excellent major and can choose from many relevant substantive courses. Those interested in social research and policymaking will benefit especially from courses that teach practical skills of data gather- ing and analysis. In all of these courses, we encourage students to study issues from a vari- ety of perspectives, to develop a critical awareness of social life, and to use a “sociological imagination” to analyze social problems and act effectively. NYU’s Department of Sociology reflects the scope of our discipline. The faculty includes experts in a variety of fields, including gender studies and the family; crime, law, and deviance; political sociology, including social movements and social policy; organizations and economy; education; inequality; community and urban life; social theory; and culture. The full range of our course offerings is shown in the listing of courses below.

TUITION, FEES, AND FINANCIAL AID • 203 Student Activities, University Services

he College of Arts and Science offer students a wide variety of activities outside the classroom: curriculum-related clubs, special events, and service to the community Tand the University. Students participate in faculty meetings and departmental com- mittees and sit as voting members of the University Senate. The vigor of intellectual life at college after hours is found in curriculum-related clubs that embrace all academic disciplines. For example, the Classics Club is noted for guest lecturers, Greek and Latin reading groups, discussion groups on classical civilization, and productions of ancient tragedy and comedy in the original language and in English. Bus trips are organized by various clubs (e.g., Fine Arts, History, Classics Clubs) to museums and private collections in other cities. Clubs associated with the sciences visit research lab- oratories, hospitals, and industrial plants. Students may become members of the Choral Arts Society, the NYU Concert Band, the NYU Jazz Ensembles, the NYU Orchestra, the NYU Woodwind Ensembles, the NYU Chamber Music Society, and Collegium Musicum. In addition, the Student Council sponsors other cocurricular activities. Students serve the community in various ways, volunteering time to settlement houses or tutoring high school students. Information on student life is available at the College Advising Center, Silver Cen- ter, Room 905. A variety of activities is open to all students at Washington Square: student coun- cils representing all undergraduate and graduate students; special interest groups; science and professional societies; political, religious, and ethnic groups; fraternities; sororities; stu- dent publications, including the ; and the radio station, WNYU- FM.

he University confers the following degrees on candidates recommended by the fac- ulty of the College of Arts and Science and approved by the trustees of New York TUniversity: 1. Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) B.A. programs are offered by all departments of the College except that of neural science. 2. Bachelor of Science (B.S.) B.S. programs are offered by the following departments of the College: chemistry, neural science, and physics. For details, see these individual departments. The College also offers jointly with Stevens Institute of Technology a Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Engineering (B.S./B.E.) program. See under Engineering. Further infor- mation is available in the College Advising Center, Silver Center, Room 905. The general degree requirements are the same for the B.A. and the B.S. with the exception of the B.S./B.E. To be eligible for the bachelor’s degree, students must complete 128 points with a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0. Within these points, students must fulfill the requirements of both a major and the Morse Academic Plan (MAP). The degree requirements to be fulfilled are those in effect during the term of the student’s first registration in the College. Registration in another division of New York University does not constitute a registration in the College of Arts and Science. Readmitted students must fulfill the requirements as listed in the College of Arts and Science Bulletin published during the year of their readmission, unless their readmis- sion letter states otherwise. In very exceptional cases, a student may petition the Committee on Undergradu- ate Academic Standards for approval of a change in the requirements as stated in the bul- letin. The petition form may be obtained from the Office of the Associate Dean for Stu- dents, Silver Center, Room 909B.
