"Interprofessional Exploration of Health and Mental Health in India" Course Info Session

August 30 at 5 p.m.

In the 3 credit "Interprofessional Exploration of Health and Mental Health in India" course, students from social work, nursing, pharmacy, and public health will learn about health care practices in India. The travel portion of the course will take place January 5–15, 2023, and includes participation in an international conference and visits to health and social service agencies in India.

During the Fall, students will work virtually in teams with students from India to learn about health and mental health issues and care in India and prepare a conference presentation. Students earn 3 credits in the Spring semester but assignments span the Fall, Winter, and Spring semesters.

A grant from UMB's Center for Global Education Initiatives will cover the cost of conference attendance and most in-country travel expenses. Students will need to cover the cost of airfare which is estimated at $1,500 and any immunizations that are needed.

Applications are open until September 6. Apply today!

Email Dr. Joan Pittman or Dr. Deborah Gioia with any questions.
