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. 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). For information, please contact the director's office at 718-780-4023, fax 718-780-4061 or email bkln- [email protected].

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.

Leadership Training LIU Promise provides annual leadership training for all students involved in student organizations at leadership retreats. We also offer trainings and workshops throughout the year.
The City is Our Campus Our student body has the opportunity to take advantage of being in the greatest city in the world. We believe that the student experience takes place in the classroom, outside the classroom and off campus. LIU students have the opportunity to see some of the best parts of New York City with many free and significantly discounted activities. These range from local events such as food festivals and street festivals to Broadway shows and professional sports. On a given week you could visit the NYC aquarium with some of your classmates or catch a Knicks fame after class one day.
Civic and Community Program LIU Promise encourages students to be knowledgeable and engaged citizens. The office registers over 400 students per year in our various voter registration drives. Additionally, the office sponsors “LIU Cares Month” in the month of February, and other service opportunities. Past initiatives, throughout the year, have included fundraising for various benefits such as Relay for Life, Hurricane Sandy relief, breast cancer research, an alternative spring break trip, several blood drives throughout the year, clothing and book drives, holiday celebrations for children in the community and several others. All students and members of student organizations, in particular, are encouraged to participate in community service each year.
Student Government Association All enrolled students are members of the Student Government Association (SGA). The executive officers of the SGA, along with the elected representatives from each class, constitute the SGA Student Council. Some of the SGA Student Council’s many duties include allocating of funds to all campus organizations; approving the formation of new organizations; and sponsoring extracurricular programs of intellectual, cultural and social appeal for the student body. In addition to its administrative functions, the SGA Student Council acts as a liaison between the student body and the faculty and administration. In addition, each student organization has representation on the SGA senate.

These resources may be accessed via the LIU Brooklyn Library homepage at www.liu.edu/brooklyn-library. Collectively, the libraries house approximately 619,000 print books and more than 15,000 non-print media items. The collections of all LIU libraries are listed in LIUCAT, the library catalog. Books, journal articles and other library materials owned by LIU’s libraries not available at a particular campus can be requested through LIUCAT and supplied via the intralibrary loan service of the LIU libraries. Items not available at LIU libraries can also be requested through interlibrary loan and brought to campus or delivered electronically. In addition, the LIU Libraries system administers the Digital Commons @ LIU, an open access online repository that preserves, promotes, and disseminates the academic work of LIU students and faculty. The LIU Brooklyn Library houses a rich collection of books, periodicals, microforms, audio and videotapes, CDs and DVDs, pamphlets, and other materials in support of the campus’ educational programs. The reference collection, reference desk, paralegal collection and technical services departments are situated on the third floor of the Salena Library Learning Center. An information commons, consisting of clusters of computers, provides access to the databases, library catalog, and the Internet, all within a few steps of the reference librarians. These computers, as well as all other computers in the library, are also equipped with productivity software such as word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation programs. The periodicals department, with a collection of both print and microform titles, is located on the fourth floor, where digital microform readers and printers are available. The InterLibrary loan, special collections, rare book room, and the electronic services department are also located on the fourth floor.

SCHOOL OF BUSINESS, PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AND INFORMATION SCIENCES
The School of Business, Public Administration and Information Sciences (SBPAIS), aligned with the mission of the University, supports the idea of educational access for any and all those willing to apply themselves to the task. As a school, we strive for excellence in our engaged learning, our relevant scholarship and our impactful service in the name of student success. For many students of business, success in higher education is a tangible step toward success in the world of work. Toward that end, SBPAIS strives to maintain a curriculum responsive to the dynamic marketplace. Our NYSED approved Bachelors of Business Administration is an illustrative example. By including four new classes related to data analytics – a specialty in high demand from employers – students in the program will be better prepared for success at interviews and success at the job. Our graduate-level satellite programs at leading financial and health-care institutions are a testimony to our ability to deliver an education to the world’s most demanding and discerning customers. Outside the classroom, research has proven that those students active on campus tend to encounter greater career success. SBPAIS has responded accordingly with extracurricular activities that more closely resemble internships than clubs, thereby bolstering student resumes. During the 2018-2019 year alone, through a set of new initiatives, our LIU students have the chance to manage a real-money portfolio of stock market investments through our Student Managed Fund. Students can be responsible for the social media promotion of our school through the Marketing Society, and students interested in going on to law school interact with sitting judges not just in the classroom but also in their chambers through our Pre-Law Society. At SBPAIS, we realize that getting involved leads to being hired and a successful career launch. More foundationally, each incoming student is encouraged to enroll in our Passport to Personal and Professional Development mentorship program. Through a series of personalized coaching sessions, students hone their professional behaviors and prepare for the demands of the job search.
The School of Business, Public Administration and Information Sciences consists of three academic units: Department of Business; Department of Technology, Innovation and Computer Science; and Public Administration. The Department of Business and the Department of Technology, Innovation and Computer Science offer undergraduate, graduate and an accelerated shared credit degree, while the Department of Public Administration only offers graduate degrees. Degrees offered at the undergraduate level include the following: Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) with concentrations in Accounting, Entrepreneurship, Finance, Human Resource Management, Management and Marketing; Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Accounting, Business Finance, Business Management (available with a concentration in Human Resource Management), Computer Science, Entrepreneurship, Healthcare Management, Marketing and Technology Management; Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) in Business Administration; and Bachelor of Science and Master of Science (B.S. and M.S.) accelerated shared credit program in Accounting.

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. For information, please contact the main office at 718-488-1055 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 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 Bachelor of Science degrees in health science, respiratory care, diagnostic medical sonography, social work, communication sciences and disorders, sport management, and sports sciences. It also offers combined BS/MS dual degrees in athletic training, occupational therapy, communication sciences and disorders/speech-language pathology, and fitness and wellness/physical education, as well as an accelerated shared credit B.S. Health Science and Master Public Health. All students are expected to complete 60 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 (e.g., NBRC and or state licensing board) to issue the credential or license to practice. Prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact pertinent state licensing boards 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. 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 to Europe and then to China or Australia/Asia Pacific. In the first semester of their senior year they are placed in an international internship with a leading organization dedicated to addressing a chosen global issue 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.
