  • culturally sensitive practice. Introduces students to group dynamics and group development. Prerequisite: SOCW 245, 360. (4) SOCW 465 : Social Work Practice III: Macropractice Using the generalist social work practice framework, students develop engagement, assessment, intervention and evaluation skills for local and global practice with organizations, and communities. As professional social workers, students map community assets, examine community development, and advocate for diverse and marginalized

  • dynamics, systems theory and group therapy models will be applied to the treatment of psychiatric disorders in a variety of settings. An overview and critical analysis of family theories and conceptual models will inform psychotherapy with children, adolescents, adults, elders, and their families. Prerequisite: NURS 654. (5) (Didactic 2 credits, lab/seminar 1 credit, clinical 2 credits) (120 hours clinical) NURS 656 : PMHNP IV: Psychotherapies Across the Lifespan An overview of the major schools of

  • status. SOCW 565: SUD Assessment & Intervention (4)This course provides a broad understanding of the stages, processes, and effects of substance use disorders, the social and psychological dynamics of substance use disorders, and the social worker’s role in prevention, intervention, and aftercare, including recovery and relapse prevention. Students will also learn specific interventions for substance abuse treatment, such as motivational interviewing (MI) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). SOCW

  • measurements were performed to analyze the relationship of ionic conductivity to the segmental dynamics of the rigid polymer backbone. Thursday, April 30th, 2015 (Morken Room 103)1:40 pm - Welcome1:50 pm - Building a Molybdenum Complex: Working Towards an Organometallic Approach to Activating Carbon Dioxide Kathleen Berge, Capstone Senior Seminar An optimized synthesis of a transition metal tris(pyrazolyl)borate complex capable of activating carbon dioxide was investigated. The relatively inexpensive

  • understanding. I am extremely grateful for my time spent at PLU and will stand proud as a Lute graduate forever. What’s next? I have been interning for the past five months in the cardiac rehab department at Tacoma General and I love it. After graduation, I will continue to work on obtaining the 500 hours needed to sit for the ACSM Clinical Exercise Specialist Certification necessary to pursue a career as an exercise specialist in cardiac and pulmonary rehab. In addition, and most importantly, I will be

  • ocean as environment for plant and animal life; an introduction to structure, dynamics, and history of marine ecosystems. Lab, field trips, and term project in addition to lecture. Prerequisite: BIOL 226. (4) BIOL 387 : Special Topics in Biology Selected topics as announced by the department. May be repeated for credit. (1 to 4) BIOL 388 : Special Topics in Biology To provide undergraduate students with new, one-time, and developing courses not yet available in the regular curriculum. The title will

  • -nm feature sizes required for the development of faster and more efficient microprocessors. In this project, we investigate how nonlinear block polymer architectures impact the thermodynamics underlying their microphase separation. Specifically, we describe the synthesis of densely grafted, core-shell bottlebrush polymers derived from linking cylinder-forming ABA-type triblocks through their chain midpoints. Using temperature-dependent synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering, we demonstrate that

  • scattering (BASIS) was used to characterize homo and diblock dynamics and impedance measurements used to quantify lithium ion conductivity of the homopolymer. 4:00 pm - Biochemical Characterization of Truncated Mitochondrial DNA Polymerase Pol β-PAK from Trypanosoma brucei Alicia Worley, Capstone Senior Seminar Trypanosoma brucei has two polymerase beta enzymes that participate in mitochondrial DNA replication within its kinetoplast DNA network (kDNA). These two proteins, Pol β and Pol β-PAK, are found

  • . A variety of novel oligo(ethylene oxide) grafted diblock copolymers with bulky backbones were synthesized from basic building blocks and characterized for use as solid polymer electrolytes which can decouple ionic conductivity from local segmental dynamics. The phase behavior of these systems was studied by atomic force microscopy and appears to deviate substantially from standard theoretical random coil – random coil diblock systems. This deviation is believed to be due to a conformational
