  • MHA 6850: GLB MHA Study Abroad

    3.00 Credits
    Weber State University

    Healthcare has become a global phenomenon. Travel to other countries to see firsthand how their health industries are planned and organized, how care is delivered, and to interact with health leaders, providers, and patients from other countries provides an inarguably rich experience for healthcare leaders. In addition, the study abroad experience requires both sound knowledge of the health industry being observed and scholarly reflection on its effectiveness, efficiency, and success in addressing and meeting that country's healthcare needs.

    3.00 Credits
    Weber State University

    We live in a microbial world. In this course, we will explore our complicated relationships with microbes, from those used to make bread, beer, and yogurt, to those that cause disease and death. To understand how microbes spread, cause illness, and evolve, we will use current important public health examples and case studies, such as sexually transmitted diseases, antibiotic resistance, measles outbreaks, food-borne illnesses, and drug use and abuse. Students will also learn about current efforts to understand and control our microscopic neighbors, such as vaccines, hand sanitizer, and antibiotics. We will discuss how public health issues are studied, how they influence society, and how we make policy decisions to prevent disease.

    Weber State University

    We will explore the intimate relationships between infectious diseases and humans. Students will examine the biology of influential diseases and the biological principles that allow diseases to influence human events. The course uses scientific explanations and case studies to investigate the effects of diseases on human society. Each disease will be examined from different angles including its natural history (reservoirs, host factors, transmission), pathogenicity, historical impacts, and appropriate interventions. The diseases chosen reflect plagues that have occurred throughout history, especially those that have important lessons for the fields of microbiology or public health.
