PUBHHBP 4558: Policy as a Prevention Strategy

This course will prepare upper-level undergraduate students on the key elements of how policy can be used as an intervention to promote primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.  Course activities will build skills for the evaluation of when policy is an appropriate strategy, and how to prepare a policy brief on a formal policy issue that impacts population health.  Each student will work with a small group to choose a policy topic and prepare research-informed policy brief.
