GEOG 3020 HEALTH & MEDICAL GEOGRAPHY (3 credits)
What are the relationships between place and health? Why are there health disparities between populations in different parts of the country, and the world? The field of health and medical geography offers methods and perspectives to help us understand these timely and pressing questions. In this class, we will examine the links between societies, geographies, and health and disease, and what the implications are for our interconnected world.
