The Global Health Minor draws on courses from across the college to both interrogate and inform our understanding and approaches to global public health issues. The minor provides opportunities to take relevant courses in both the social and natural sciences while grounding those perspectives in a core set of courses on global public health and medicine.

Global Health considers the health of populations in a worldwide context, the diverse set of factors which determine health, and how equity in health might be achieved for all people. Wabash College’s Global Health minor examines the history of public health, the burdens of disease, and evaluates health in local, regional, and international contexts. Students will be challenged to understand the social determinants of health, examine the basic tools to evaluate health in communities, consider health in the context of human rights, and assess the influence of culture on human health. The minor is an interdivisional global health program that brings together courses addressing the economic, social, biological, and ethical issues surrounding the health of communities, particularly those in low-resource settings. The minor is designed to engage students interested in careers in global health, public health, health care, policy, economics, communication, and other social sciences.

Public health challenges play out on local and global stages, and are impacted by phenomena such as environmental degradation, war and civil unrest, immigration patterns, cultural practices, and differential access to preventive programs and treatment. The Community and Global Health (CGH) concentration helps students learn to analyze and understand public health in all its complexity.
