This course will provide Bachelor of Public Health (BPH) students a culminating experience through a practice-based simulation of community health assessment and community health improvement strategies grounded in the Evidence-Informed Decision-Making model. Students will use a synthesis of the BPH program's core coursework (epidemiology, biostatistics, environmental health, population health management and policy, and health behavior) augmented by concepts of health equity and systems thinking. 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.
