Hello everyone!
 
We are hosting an Info Session on Tuesday, April 28 from 12:15 – 1:00 and Wednesday, April 29 from 4:15 – 5:00 about the “Global Health and Diversity” course that will take place abroad in Australia over the 2015-2016 Winter Break term. This course has been a popular course for students interested in health-related studies abroad.
 
We will focus on a variety of concepts comparing health issues in the U.S. and Australia. Students will be particularly interested in the health care, aging, disability, and maternal and child health aspects of the course.  Lena Hann, Clinical Instructor in the College of Applied Health Sciences School of Public Health, will be the instructor for the course. 
 
Please share this with your students and encourage them to attend one of the information sessions next week.  These are the last information sessions that we will be holding before the end of the semester.  We appreciate your assistance in getting the word out about this program.
