Academic Programs

PhD in Psychology

The Ph.D. Program in Psychology prepares students for research, teaching, and practice in the various fields of psychology. While all doctoral degrees are awarded by the Graduate Center, the subprograms are based at different locations within CUNY. Application for admission should be made to a particular subprogram.

PhD in Physical Therapy (DPT)

The Doctoral Program in Physical Therapy, which awards the DPT, is designed to prepare students to become clinician-scientists who can perform all aspects of physical therapy practice and conduct clinical research.

DNS in Nursing Science

The Doctoral Program in Nursing Science, which awards the DNS, is designed to provide students within New York City, New York State, and the nation with education in nursing, related theories, and empirical research methodology, thus preparing them as nurse leaders in the delivery of quality-based health care. The program will expand the knowledge base of nursing practice, health care management, health care policy, and economics through the research and scholarship of its faculty members and students. Graduates will be prepared to conduct research, be involved in nursing policy, teach, and assume leadership positions in health care settings.

Human Ecodynamics Research Center

Dr. Sophia Perdikaris

Codirectors:
Dr. Thomas McGovern
Dr. Andrew Dugmore
Dr. Reg Murphy

The Human Ecodynamics Research Center (HERC) at the CUNY Graduate Center is coordinating the effort of scholars in a formal research collaborative addressing crucial issues of sustainability, resilience, and the future of humans on earth. HERC focuses on the past and present global interactions of humans and the natural world, using fields of inquiry and methods of investigation from anthropology, archaeology, sociology, geosciences, climatology, biological sciences, art, history, and political science.

Following initiatives by the National Science Foundation (NSF) the study of human ecodynamics is used to emphasize collective and cross-disciplinary ways of understanding:

- constant and often discontinuous change
- the ubiquity of human impact past and present
- the potential for rapid threshold crossing climate change
- complex conjuncture of “fast” and “slow” variables in time and space
- the increased role of geospatial perspectives and newly dynamic modeling in driving interdisciplinary investigations and synthesis

The team at the Human Ecodynamics Research Center (HERC) has been specifically tasked by the NSF Office of Polar Programs to develop an international and interdisciplinary research forum called the Global Human Ecodynamics Alliance (GHEA, www.gheahome.org).
