Health & Society
Using a social-ecological framework, Health and Society content considers the interaction of the individual, community, policy and system factors that influence health. During each organ-based module, students learn how the social determinants of health impact the health conditions that they are studying.
Four curricular threads are associated with Health and Society and receive special emphasis throughout the curriculum:
- Digital Health and Data Science
- Healthcare Quality & Patient Safety
- Health Equity & Advocacy
- Business of Medicine
