SOCY 37 Introduction to Public Health: An Individual, Community, and Population-Based Approach

This course will enhance Dartmouth undergraduates’ knowledge of public health and foster skills and commitment to improving health, particularly the health of the Upper Valley Community. We will use experiential and collaborative community-based approaches to apply the principles of public health, determinants of health, behavior change, and systems improvement. We will promote a learning environment from which collaborative interventions can occur among Dartmouth undergraduates, graduate school professionals, faculty, physicians and community members, leaders, and organizations.
