AS 1001Posse Group Meeting0
This course is designed to hone and strengthen the dynamic of a Posse cohort. Groups of Posse scholars identified for their leadership and academic potential strive to support one another across all parts of the Cornell experience and one's life-academically, socially, professionally and personally-with the ultimate goal of graduating and taking on roles as leaders in the workforce.
A course for students new to Cornell centered on interacting with their faculty advisor and other students in a small-group setting. Through exercises and/or short assignments, students will build awareness of resources to help them navigate their new environment. The seminar will facilitate a sense of community and identity as an A&S student and provide a forum for faculty advisors to actively engage with their advisees throughout the first semester. Students will also have opportunities to attend workshops on a range of topics, including career development, building study skills, navigating the academic landscape, special academic programs, and thriving at Cornell.
Milstein First-Year Foundations introduces students to the conceptual and practical tools needed for the pursuit and communication of interdisciplinary research. Drawing on perspectives from technology studies, media theory, and the arts, the course examines how text, images, and sound function as systems for producing and communicating knowledge. The course incorporates visits from guest faculty and hands-on activities that explore issues of mediation, representation, and interpretation. From literature, music, and art to AI-generated text, sounds, and images, students will learn to analyze how technologies shape meaning. Through iterative assignments, they will develop skills in designing research questions, working across media, and critically evaluating sources, preparing them to undertake independent research in the future.
AS 2010Career BRIDGE: Building Readiness, Insight, Direction, Growth, & Experience2
This course explores the evolving landscape of work through the lenses of labor market data, organizational structures, social psychology, and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence. Students will connect empirical research with self-assessment tools and experiential learning to develop a personalized, evidence-based career readiness strategy. The course includes a career trek to NYC over Spring Break and a chance to create a career plan for your next steps.
MStudio brings world-class speakers, faculty innovators, leading industry voices, and extraordinary Cornell alums to campus for public talks and conversations on tech and humanities as well as special immersive skills-based short courses.
Milstein Scholars undertake a year-long, independent study to deepen their understanding of the issues, topics, and technologies that interest them. What form these projects take -- research essay, video art, app development, etc. -- is up to the Scholar and their collaborators. Working with a faculty mentor in the field, juniors define and scope their projects in the fall and execute in the spring semester. This course culminates with the Milstein Expo in May.
