This second course in the MPH/MHA integrated core sequence will prepare students to engage in the important tasks of assessing population and patient needs, implementing and evaluating culturally appropriate public health programs, policies, and interventions, and pursuing appropriate resources to support activities through the policy process and via effective use of power in the face of competing interests. The course will be a mix of individual and team-based assignments based upon an existing or newly identified problem, in addition to case studies, interactive simulations, and applied writing assignments.
