Health & Society – Fall Info Sessions and Application
FALL 2015 HEALTH & SOCIETY INFO SESSIONS
How does the concept of health vary across cultures? What accounts for the vast health disparities that exist in the world? How does the health care system in the U.S. differ from models in other developed countries? How has our understanding of health changed over the course of human history? These are some of the big questions students will tackle in Health and Society, an interdisciplinary major in Liberal Arts. Prospective students should attend one of the following info sessions to learn more about the major, degree requirements, and application process:
