PPE-272: Diversity and Equity Issues in Health and Wellness

Course Description

This course explores the issues of race, class, and gender from an interdisciplinary and humanistic perspective as they apply to health and wellness. The student will develop an understanding of the historical and contemporary societal factors that impact individuals and group identity. Further examination of social structures in the development of concepts such as power, privilege, oppression and opportunity will be explored in both global application and in the development of health and wellness in current society. Students will use self-examination, social analysis, reflection on text, movies and media, as well as case studies to develop the critical knowledge, attitudes and skills necessary to recognize and understand the diversity of perspectives, needs, expectations and behaviors impacting health and wellness in multicultural populations.
