POPH 335 Population Reproductive Health
An introductory undergraduate level course designed to teach learners how to examine reproductive health issues from a population health perspective using a life course approach to investigate the challenges people face at different times in their lives such as family planning, services to prevent sexually transmitted diseases and early diagnosis and treatment of reproductive health illnesses, and access of essential health supplies such as contraceptives and medicines. The course content will emphasize the social, economic, environmental, behavioral, and political factors associated with reproductive health. Students will make connections between classroom knowledge and use problem solving skills to work with a community organization to update lesson plans and facilitate lessons to pregnant women and their partners during the semester.
