In this course we will explore what public health is (and what it is not), the science and data that underpin it, and how it is a part of our social fabric. We will explore some of the causes of disease, and other societal threats to health. And, because public health is intertwined with medical delivery services, we will explore health care systems. While our focus will be on what is happening within the United States, we will take the opportunity to explore things that are different in other parts of the world, as well.
