Description

This course examines how and why we our social, cultural, and economic arrangements make us healthy or sick. We will examine how social class, race/ethnicity/nativity, gender, and other similar factors shape inequalities in health both in the United States and across the world. This class should leave students with a greater understanding of the complexities involved in promoting global public health and a set of strategies for how to move forward in doing so.

 

This course is approved for the Sociology of Health and Medicine subplan and minor.
