• FCS 3720: Env. Health Disparities

  3.00 Credits

  University of Utah

  
  This course will focus on inequalities (or disparities) in illnesses associated with environmental hazards, be they physical, chemical or biological agents in air, water, soil or food. The health consequences of environmental hazards are generally underappreciated and inadequately recognized. According to World Health Organization estimates, more people die each year worldwide from air pollution alone than from HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined. Health disparities occur when groups of people systematically face obstacles that adversely affect their health based on their race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or sex/gender identity (among others characteristics historically linked to social and spatial exclusion). The elimination of environmental health disparities requires attention to environmental hazards and social conditions; it necessitates an interdisciplinary perspective.

  This capstone course in Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health I is the first course in a two-course series that provides an in-depth examination of typical and atypical infant and early childhood development through a culturally-relevant, relationship-focused lens. This course will allow students to uncover developmentally-relevant risk factors, and learn more about how early life stress and trauma can impact biopsychosocial development in infancy and early childhood. Specifically, we will review impacts of parental psychopathology, early life stress effects on the infant brain, and physiological, emotional, and cognitive development. Students will be able to articulate how early life stress and exposure to parental psychopathology 'get under the skin' to affect behavioral and mental health outcomes.
