專業(yè)概況

在這里學(xué)什么？

The Health and Societies (HSOC) major examines health and medicine in social context, equipping students with the critical faculties and multidisciplinary skills that will prepare them for careers in public health, health services, and a variety of other arenas. The program is built on the foundation of three core disciplines: anthropology, history, and sociology. Methods and courses from other disciplines and fields including epidemiology, political science, business/economics, law, environmental studies, and bioethics supplement the core disciplines and provide majors with the variety of skills necessary to grasp the forces that have shaped our contemporary health landscapes. The Health and Societies graduate is a "multilingual" scholar and citizen, fluent in the methods and perspectives of several social science disciplines theoretically informed but practically minded, with a global outlook and local experience. HSOC majors:

• Read scientific and medical texts critically, and assess their social, cultural, and political origins and ramifications;
• Identify and define key social determinants of health in a variety of historical and contemporary contexts;
• Analyze the interplay of factors that have resulted in particular health outcomes and policies;
• Integrate methods from history, sociology, anthropology, and other disciplines in empirical assessments of communities, populations, and policy interventions on multiple levels;
• Pursue in-depth research projects using published sources, archival material, and ethnographic and experimental data;
• Analyze data using both quantitative and qualitative methods; and
• Participate in the design of effective multipronged strategies to address health challenges in local, national, and international contexts.

The concentrations are

• Bioethics and Health
