Program Description
The Global Health Certificate is designed to enhance professional education through full immersion experiences in a resource limited environment in which students will learn and experience medical care constrained by poverty, lack of resources, as well as social, environmental, and cultural barriers. This fundamental knowledge helps students become independent thinkers and doers who see and create opportunities for innovation that foster health and social and economic change in resource poor settings. NEOMED Students can be teamed up with students from partner universities abroad and jointly complete the didactic and practical portions of their training and jointly carry out their project ideation, design, implementation, and evaluation. This 10-credit program can be completed while students are enrolled in other graduate or professional programs.
