This course is designed to introduce the student to concepts of culture, race, ethnicity, and competence. Emphasis will be placed on identifying individual characteristics and their influence on bias. Factors related to culturally and linguistically appropriate health care will be reviewed. This course is a Graduation Composition and Communication Requirement (GCCR) course in certain programs, and hence is not likely to be eligible for automatic transfer credit to UK.
