CORE CLASS

(required)
Health Sciences is a sector that manifests in often unique, variable, and context dependent circumstances that directly contribute to our longevity and quality of life. As the demand for health sciences and health care professionals increases around the world with higher life expectancy rates, increasing health care tourism, and complex financing, legislation, and litigation parameters in different countries and regions, students pursuing careers in the health sciences will require critically comparative knowledge, the capacity and creativity to solve problems and innovate, and the professional competencies to be essential and compassionate contributors and leaders in a rapidly evolving field.

This class is designed for students pursuing a career in the health services or health care fields, as patient facing practitioners, health system administrators, and policy makers, and are interested in enhancing their academic and professional opportunities beyond traditional classroom boundaries through a curriculum combining integrated professional competencies and skills development, concurrent with an in-depth examination of the health sciences and services through curated opportunities for active, applied, and authentic learning assessment.

From challenge-based group projects to company and health care provider visits, panel discussions, expert talks, and networking events, the robust dual socialized and corporate health care sector in the greater London area will serve as an extension of the classroom and provide access to the leaders and companies that are driving change in health sciences.鈥� (3 U.S. semester credit hours)
