Description : PA 3500 undergraduate students created Equity Audits for non-profits in various departments (from HR to philanthropy). Students were divided into three groups and collaborated with one of three community partners. Each group conducted two (60-minute) interviews with the organizations and asked them to complete a survey at the end of the semester. Students had the opportunity to hear from several guest lecturers about non-profit management through the DEAI lens. PA 3500

Topics:
Description : Econometrics is routinely taught as an application class using a 'black box' like Stata or SAS to perform calculations. This class takes a different approach. Using the Python programming language, we build all estimators from scratch. Additionally, we introduce numerous non-parametric and simulation techniques. This approach to econometrics results in a stronger understanding of statistical assumptions and methods, a better understanding of when a method is appropriate, and stronger programming techniques. Furthermore, a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanics provides the student the ability to program custom procedures not already built into popular software packages. As part of the course, students will work with a community partner to answer a real question with data; MBA students should consult with their advisor about this course satisfying the project-focused capstone requirement.

Topics:
Description : The content of this course will focus on children who are identified as "exceptional"; in terms of behavioral, cognitive, and learning problems. Exceptionality in this sense includes students who are in need of preventative and/or intervention-based services. The topics will be approached from a multidisciplinary perspective and emphasis will be placed on utilizing a response to intervention approach in working with exceptional individuals. The service-learning component of the course will require students to learn about the educational environment by spending time in an elementary classroom, consulting with school staff and addressing the educational needs of students.
