This course will provide students with practical skills and theoretical understanding to assess the health needs of a community or a population, develop and implement culturally-appropriate programs to promote the health of populations, and evaluate outcomes.

These skills will be applied through a series of applied practice projects serving a government or nonprofit agency: stakeholder engagement, community health assessment, grant proposal, and program evaluation.
