This course provides students with the necessary blend of theory, best practice, and authentic problems of practice in leadership. The course provides a bridge between their thought in other courses and the practicalities involved as they prepare for the administrative leadership selection process and their first leadership assignment. Students learn how to use personal assessment tools and feedback to construct Individual Development Plans.

This module will investigate the current legal, moral, and instructional impact of special education policies in the Commonwealth of Virginia and across the nation. Response to Intervention concepts will be explored in-depth.

Detailed study of graduate course material on an independent basis under the guidance of a faculty member

This is the required course for the graduate Certificate in Digital Humanities. It entails participation in colloquia, sixty hours of experience participating in a research project uniting computation and humanities, and a portfolio.

Students will learn theoretical and practical foundations of computational methods for analysis of experimental data from various biological data types. Course will cover algorithms, statistical and computational methods, and application areas in computational biology, and will include both classical methods as well as recent advances. Prior coursework/experience in linear algebra, UNIX, and R & Python programming required.

Networks provide a unifying framework to study the structure hidden within complex data. This graduate-level course focuses on the fundamental concepts and statistics as well as recent advancements and applications of network science. Topics include: graph theory, structural paradoxes, measures and algorithms for quantifying importance, community detection, network inference, recommendation systems, and link prediction.

This course provides the opportunity to offer a new topic in the subject area of academic, professional, and creative writing. For more details on this class, please visit the department website at http://www.engl.virginia.edu/courses.

This course introduces students to the underlying histories and theoretical dimensions of urban design as a creative spatial practice. By exploring a wide range of urban interventions at multiple scales, the course contextualizes contemporary design practice within the social, environmental, and political forces acting on the urban environment.

Student will work on a supervised independent research project related to the their area of study or expertise with a member of the PHS faculty.
