Summer 2013

Certificates for International Students

explore. experience. expand.

Dear Colleagues:Greetings from UCLA Extension!

We hope you and your colleagues are well and that you are preparing applications for UCLA Extension summer quarter

certificates. Since all of us are constantly planning ahead, we are pleased to send you this listing of certificates and courses for

summer 2013.

Students and their parents often ask for program and course details; in particular, they want to see course descriptions and

fees. This electronic document will help you give your clients more information about our programs and courses—including

course fees.

As I hope you recall, students enroll in courses and pay course fees at the beginning of each quarter; they do not pay for the

entire program in advance.

To remain in status with their student visas, students must enroll in a minimum of 12 units each quarter. Most courses carry 4

units of credit, so students usually enroll in 3 courses. If students wish to enroll in more than 3 courses, they should consult with

their program advisor. We have listed contact information for the advisors on the last page of this booklet.

Please find application deadlines below along with the dates when we will send you our certificate and course information:

Certificate Entry Quarter Certificates & Course Listings Application Deadline

Summer (June–September) April 1 May 1

Fall (September–December) July 1 August 1

Winter (January–March) Early October November 1

Spring (March–June) Early January February 1

Along with our certificate and course listings, we also are including the link to the certificate program brochure:

Certificate Programs for International Students.

We wish you a successful spring and look forward to receiving your applications for our summer programs by May 1, 2013.

Thanks for your ongoing support of UCLA Extension Certificates!

Sincerely,

William H. Gaskill, PhD, Director

Landscape architects practice the aesthetic

design and composition of built and natural

environments. Typical projects range from

residential to institutional and from urban planning

and design to restoration of historical sites and

the preservation of natural ones. Today, landscape

architects must address quality of life issues,

achieve the best form and function of a given

space, maintain high ethical standards, and

approach these tasks from a global perspective.

Bachelor’s Degree required; Summer Quarter entry preferred.

Ee Ethics in AccountingX 423.422 Management 4 unitsThe business scandals of recent years have highlighted the importance of ethical behavior in the accounting profession.

Ee Fundamentals of Business Administration and ManagementX 410.53 Management 4 unitsNew Accelerated Daytime format.A majority of businesses fail within the first 2 years, and a significant percentage of the initial survivors don’t last much longer. There are many reasons for this, including inexperi-enced management, lack of sufficient capital, failure to do proper marketing, and a lack of financial competency. The bottom line is that most managers don’t know how to prop-erly systematize, structure, and manage their businesses. They don’t know because they’re not aware of where or how to find this information. This course is designed to teach students how to structure properly, systematize, and manage a business of any size or type, service or product, and in any industry. In addition to covering business concepts and fundamentals, the course stresses application to real-world situations and problems. Actual examples from a variety of current sources, such as newspapers and magazines, are analyzed and discussed. Required course in the Business Administration Certificate.

Ee Ethics in AccountingX 423.422 Management 4 unitsThe business scandals of recent years have highlighted the importance of ethical behavior in the accounting profession. This course covers the elements necessary to make proper ethical decisions by first defining what ethics are and then identifying the questions that need to be asked in everyday business practices. Key ethical standards specific to the accounting profession are explored, highlighting the unique role of the accountant both as “trusted advisor” to his/her client and the (often conflicting) role of “reporter” of financial information to the marketplace and governmental agencies. The course begins with a study of the earliest models of business ethics through today’s professional requirements of the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct, the State Board of Accountancy, and other regulatory agencies. Instruction includes writing assignments, classroom lecture, and pre-sentations based on assigned readings.

Ee Fundamentals of Business Administration and ManagementX 410.53 Management 4 unitsNew Accelerated Daytime format.A majority of businesses fail within the first 2 years, and a significant percentage of the initial survivors don’t last much longer. There are many reasons for this, including inexperi-enced management, lack of sufficient capital, failure to do proper marketing, and a lack of financial competency. The bottom line is that most managers don’t know how to prop-erly systematize, structure, and manage their businesses. They don’t know because they’re not aware of where or how to find this information. This course is designed to teach students how to structure properly, systematize, and manage a business of any size or type, service or product, and in any industry. In addition to covering business concepts and fundamentals, the course stresses application to real-world situations and problems.

The goal is to “create” as many commercially successful films as possible while dealing with limited financial resources, studio executives with their own agendas, and the whims and demands of movie stars. Every week, you negotiate deals in order to get your films made. The result may be a multimillion dollar hit or a multimillion dollar flop. Careers change, players lose jobs, are promoted, or make so much money they open their own studio. Learn the techniques of identifying and selling marketable con-cepts, the specifics of talent compensation and the studio system, while also gaining an understanding of what it takes to succeed in Hollywood as well as how to negotiate real-world industry deals.

Developing Your ReelX 450 Journalism 3 unitsIn broadcast news, a “reel” is the reporter’s calling card for getting the job. Tip the scale in your favor by building the all-important “demo reel” to send to potential employers. Through critiques and exercises, beginners and those with more experience learn how to stand out from the pack. Cover content, mood, and style, including how to execute a strong story opening; standups and bridges; improve voiceovers; camera work; lighting; sound quality; pacing and sequences; elements of surprise; and editing. Instruction also includes techniques for ensuring that your reported material is com-pelling, so that viewers cannot help but watch. Learn how to connect viewers’ emotions to the substance of a story. Students work on 2-4 stand-ups in the class and may also anchor a segment of their own. Participants who already have a reel are encouraged to use their work as a starting point. Enrollment limited; early enrollment advised. It is highly reccommended that students have access to a digital record-ing device such as an iPhone or digital camera. Students should also have experience with video editing software such as Windows MovieMaker, iMovie, Adobe, FinalCut Pro, or other video editing software.Reg# Z1787CA

In this course, students set up and/or optimize a Twitter and Facebook page to aggregate news and collect eyewitness accounts in a local context. Through case studies, analysis, and discussion, learn when and how to use these sites—and use them correctly—to increase user activity, solicit feedback, and build an audi-ence, all while maintaining a consistent voice that furthers your professional goals.
