GMS BT 290 [4 credits] Pre-requisite EN201 Intermediate Composition.
This course is designed to familiarize students with concepts of public health as a field of study and how different diseases impact society. We will use the Boston Public Health Commission report on the “Health of Boston” as a template for learning about healthcare disparities, social justice, cancer screening, cancer incidence and mortality, infectious diseases and environmental factors that impact people and population health. Students will begin to make connections between previous coursework, such as cell biology, pathology, and anatomy, as well as new concepts, including epidemiology, immunology, and experimental designs, as they pertain to the study of human disease. The goal of the course is to give students a knowledge-base that can prepare them for thinking critically should they decide to work in a research, diagnostic, or public setting.
A teaching opportunity for this course is available in Fall 2019. Course educators are expected to develop and teach the course. The course educator/s will collaborate with the Director of Biomedical Laboratory & Clinical Sciences Program.
