Credits: 3
Grad Meth: Reg, P-F, Aud
This course serves as a broad introduction to Terrapin Think Tank. Students will learn the basic core competencies we use in health policy research, advocacy, and evaluation. Students will be introduced to policy structures at county- and state-level, key players, and best practices in designing policies and interventions that are sustainable and truly community-centric. Students will also have the opportunity to build out an original initiative, program, or piece of legislation over the course of the semester which will culminate in a final presentation with community and faculty leaders.
