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 5 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 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.

In our increasingly Minimum Minor GPA. 2.0 multilingual world, the ability to communicate with people from other cultures and from many walks of life infinitely enriches individual experience and holds out the promise of bridging differences that now needlessly divide us. The ability to understand, speak, read and write an acquired language broadens horizons, raises cultural awareness, fosters intellectual inquiry and heightens our capacity to act effectively, ethically and compatibly in everyday global affairs. The Department of Foreign Languages and Literature offers two-semester sequences of introductory language study in Spanish, French, and Italian. Students are provided with the tools they need to develop the requisite communicational skills in speaking, listening comprehension, reading and writing while acquiring a sound working knowledge of grammar. Diverse written and aural/oral textbook and workbook assignments are chosen specifically to meet these goals. Students are additionally exposed to the culture and history of the various countries in which the languages are spoken. Onsite language-laboratory facilities and an online component complement and reinforce weekly classroom sessions, helping students perfect their pronunciation and increase their proficiency. Intermediate and upper-level courses run with sufficient enrollment. Six credits in a foreign language are required of most entering Richard L. Conolly College students as part of the core curriculum. This requirement is satisfied by completing six credits in French, Italian or Spanish 11, 12 or the equivalent. The six credits must be in one language. Students may not take French, Italian or Spanish 12 without successful completion of French, Italian or Spanish 11 or the permission of the chair. Students with knowledge of a foreign language may be exempted. Students so exempted need not take a foreign language as part of the core requirement, but receive no credit. Exemption examinations are given by the Testing Center. For complete information concerning placement/exemption, contact the department.

Minor in Gender Studies
Students majoring in any discipline also may pursue an academic minor in gender studies. The Gender Studies minor provides students with an overview of the complex relationship between individual and community identity formation. It explores the constructions of self and the status of women, men and transgender in culture and society; the interrelatedness of gender with race, ethnicity, class, age, sexual orientation and the assumptions about gender biases and gender stereotypes. Gender Studies provides a unique education to students – female, male and transgender – who wish to enhance their career prospects in the 21st century as would-be educators, artists, writers, leaders, innovators, egalitarian entrepreneurs and challengers of oppression in any given field. Topics include: • Biology of human reproduction • Philosophies of gender construction • Feminist theory • Feminist perspectives on global human rights • Gender and development • Gender and health • Sex roles in the family and society • Psychology of gender identity • Queer theory • Representations of women and men in literature and media • Reproductive rights • Ecofeminism • Violence and gender • Sex, gender and sexuality • Space, place and gender identity
The minor in Gender Studies is comprised of 12 credits: 6 credits of required coursework from: HUM 101: Introduction to Gender Studies HUM 102: Theories of Feminism HUM 103: Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Gender and Sexuality HUM 126: Culture, Gender and Society HUM 104: Gender and Knowledge And 6 credits of electives from a selection of special courses offered each semester by other departments and cross-listed with Gender Studies. Examples include: SPE 244: Feminist Spectacle/Gender and Performance SPE 185: Gender and Communication BIO 140: Biology and Gender POL 128: Race, Sex, and the Law MA 540: Media, Gender, and Sexuality For further information contact Professors Margaret Cuonzo ([email protected]) 718 488- 1050 or Luz Martin del Campo (luz.martin- [email protected])

DEPARTMENT OF Minimum Total Credits: 12 Minimum Minor GPA. 2.0 PHILOSOPHY
Professors: Filonowicz (Chair), Cuonzo Adjunct Faculty: 9
Philosophy is an ongoing pursuit of intellectual refinement, challenge and discovery, rooted in our natural human curiosity and our wish to exercise good judgment in all that we believe and do. Philosophy familiarizes students with the basic concepts at work in every area of intellectual inquiry and provides skills in constructing and evaluating arguments––whatever their subject matter may be. As a critical approach to all academic disciplines, philosophy helps us avoid overspecialization while enabling us to see the discoveries of every other field in a coherent perspective. Philosophy asks “big” questions, concerning the nature of reality, whether God exists, how the mind works, or what makes something beautiful. It expands our intellects and enlarges our feelings in exciting and rewarding ways. A minor in philosophy provides not only a thorough grounding in the humanities and liberal arts, but also training in the close reasoning and orderly presentation of ideas required by such professions as law, diplomacy, teaching, public administration, economics, business and the health professions. By minoring in philosophy, students learn to reason effectively, view problems from multiple perspectives, and argue persuasively in their speech and writing. Richard L. Conolly College does not offer a major in Philosophy at this time. Particular strengths of the department include Applied Ethics, the History of Ideas, Social and Political Philosophy, Philosophy of Feminism, and Philosophy of Law, Religion, Art, Language, and Science. Our department offers Health Care Ethics every semester, as well as innovative electives such as Philosophy of Sex and Love, Black Existentialism, Ethics and Non-Human Animals, and Philosophy through Film. Many of our courses are cross-listed with other majors and minors, such as Gender Studies, Africana Studies, Asian Studies and Humanities. Our faculty teach every semester in the university Honors Program, and we welcome Honors students to become philosophy minors.

Social Science (Division III)
The Social Science Division offers majors in history, political science, and psychology. Courses are also offered in economics and anthropology/sociology. Each major provides the theoretical and practical background for entry into many private and government enterprises. An interdisciplinary social science major, with concentrations in any two divisional disciplines, including economics and anthropology/sociology is also available. Students can also minor in every Social Science Division subject area, in addition to Latin American and Caribbean studies, Asian studies, criminal justice, political geography and urban studies. Graduate study on the master's level is offered in most undergraduate majors (M.A., M.S.), and the Ph.D. is offered in clinical psychology. Students must fulfill the requirements of the core curriculum, and satisfy the requirements of their major. Of the 120 credits required for graduation, at least 48 must be earned in courses numbered above 100.

DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS
Associate Professor: G. Rodriguez (Chair) Assistant Professor: M. Sami Professors Emeriti: Lombardi, Varma Adjunct Faculty: 4
Economics offers a unique combination of theory and practical applications, preparing students to think analytically about real world economic problems. Aside from the introductory economics sequence (Economics I and II), the department offers a variety of more advanced elective courses, including Money and Banking, Economic Development, Industrial Organization, Government Regulation, Public Finance, Urban Economics, International Economics and other subjects. The underlying goal is to train students in the use of formal analysis and empirical observation to examine varied socioeconomic issues, developing several valuable skills in the process, including the ability to apply logical and quantitative methods to economic problems, the ability to draw inferences from data, and the ability to present economic ideas in compelling writing and speech. Richard L. Conolly College does not offer an undergraduate degree program in economics at this time, however, students interested in majoring in the interdisciplinary social science degree (see Social Science sectiion), may concentrate in economics. This route, or an economics minor constitute an especially attractive alternative for liberal arts and sciences students who contemplate a future career in business, and for business students interested in expanding their academic options.
MINORS
Minor in Economics
A Minor in Economics requires 12 ECO credits at or above the 100 level, in addition to a core ECO 1 or 2 class. Since both ECO 1 and ECO 2 are recommended pre-requisites to many of the advanced economics courses, it is strongly recommended that students take both courses. Credit and G.P.A.

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 increasingly 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

SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
LIU Brooklyn's School of Education prepares teachers, counselors 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 serving children, adults, and families in urban communities. All specialties, undergraduate and graduate, within the Teacher Education Program are accredited by the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC), now the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP). 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 is comprised of two departments: Teaching, Learning and Leadership (TLL) and Counseling and School Psychology (CSP). These departments provide educational opportunities leading to rewarding careers serving urban youth, adults, and families. TLL offers undergraduate and graduate degree programs in multiple teacher certification areas. CSP offers graduate programs in school counseling, mental health counseling, marriage and family therapy, 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.

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 to research, our programs address clinical health care, community-based health, rehabilitation 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; comunication sciences and disorders, speech-language pathology; social work; and public health. The rich health professions education environment of the LIU- Brooklyn campus allows our programs introduce students to interprofessional education and 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, communication sciences and disorders, sport management and sports sciences, as well as the B.A. in Social Work.

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, Arts & Communication, and Spanish. LIU Global students have the opportunity to pursue one or more minor of their choice in Social Entrepreneurship, International Relations, Arts & Communication, and Spanish as they complete their coursework at the various centers/programs. All 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 (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.”
