Description

The Certificate in Culture, Medicine & Health offers students a critical and cross-cultural lens on health, illness, and healing. Drawing on the insights of medical anthropology, this certificate explores how systems of medicine and care are shaped by social, political, environmental and historical forces—and how people around the world experience, make sense of, and respond to suffering and well-being. 

This program is ideal for students in fields such as Global Health, Health & Society, Social Work, Equity Studies, International Development Studies and Disaster & Emergency Management, as well as for those pursuing careers in medicine, healthcare, public health, advocacy or medical research.
