GSGH 837E - Collaborative Global Health Experience

Credit(s): 3-6 credits; variable based on total hours/weeks of experience

This course allows students to substitute an experiential learning course or trip offered by or through a non-NUNM organization, such as Child Family Health International (CFHI), for the required NUNM Global Health Experience course. Students select an opportunity that will provide insight into diverse public health and/or healthcare systems; assist with health-related program development, implementation or evaluation; engage in health-related research or surveillance activities; or participate in other health-related activities. Students work with the Department of Health Sciences chair to select an appropriate, structured global health opportunity that will consist of a minimum of 36 hours (three credits) of work or programming to satisfy this academic requirement. Prerequisite(s): Approval from the Office of Health Sciences. Note: Itinerary-specific trip fee applies.
