PUBH205 Public Health Field Experience

This course is designed for Public Health majors as a pre-professional field experience of 75 hours to broaden the student’s public health perspectives and provide experience in applying the theory and content learned in their public health coursework.  It is expected that the field experience will afford students the opportunity to interact and collaborate with public health professionals and participate in actions that constitute public health.  Integral to closing the loop on the learning process is the opportunity for students to reflect on the field experience.  Students will meet weekly in a seminar format class focused on sharing, comparing, and contrasting the different infrastructures and approaches they are observing and experiencing at each field location.
