Understanding and confronting global health issues often requires transdisciplinary approaches that integrate multiple sectors working together for creative solutions. Strategies focus on vulnerable groups such as pregnant and lactating women, infants, young children, adolescents, internally displaced persons, refugees, persons with disabilities and older adults. The concentration provides students with knowledge about major infectious and chronic diseases, as well as other health conditions. Students learn to deconstruct and analyze mainstream development discourse and develop a context-specific understanding of the root causes that lead to health outcomes. Students also create program and policy solutions to address global health problems. Graduates are prepared for careers in multilateral organizations, the United States federal government, and nongovernmental organizations based in the U.S. and abroad. Career Paths Recent graduates have been selected for positions and fellowship at the following organizations: United Nations World Food Programme Center for Global Health Studies World Bank Fogarty International Center at the National Institutes of Health Mickey Leland Hunger Fellowship Concentration Requirements: 15 Credits Global Health Transdisciplinary Problem Solving (TPS) course* Policy, Politics and Power in Global Health One elective course* MPH practicum (global health-focused) *Select from a list of pre-approved courses related to global health TPS course options include: TPS: Global Hunger & Undernutrition TPS: Implementing Public Health Interventions in Developing Countries (taught abroad) TPS: International Family Planning and Reproductive Health TPS: Protection of Women and Children in Humanitarian Settings Global Health-focused electives include: International Social Development Theory Global Anti-Poverty Interventions Development Practice in International Settings Global Burden of Disease International Child Welfare PRACTICUM The MPH program requires 360 hours of practicum.
