Global Healthcare: Perspectives and Practice

Global Healthcare: Perspectives & Practice is a blended format, interprofessional course designed to introduce health professional students to global concepts without requiring a passport. Students will actively engage in gaining a global perspective through online modules, mini cultural experiences, technology, discussion, self-reflection, and small and large group exercises. This course has no examinations as it is designed to guide a change in perspective. Students will gain an appreciation of other healthcare systems and other cultures in preparation for their future practice. This course serves as a foundational preparation step for practicing cross-cultural competency as a healthcare professional and for any future short term trips a student may choose to take.
