UMKC South Africa Study Abroad

UMKC South Africa Study Abroad Interdisciplinary course (3 credit hrs) on global health and social issues led by UMKC's Bloch School faculty. Hosted by University of the Western Cape.

This interdisciplinary course (3 credit hours) focuses broadly on global health and social issues from the perspectives of national and international policy, economic and cultural issues, and activities that can alleviate the world-wide burden of disease and disparity. Intensive pre-trip sessions include discussions on South African economic, political and social history in a 21st century context,

recognizing the extraordinary dynamism of this very important country. Upon return to Kansas City, students reflect on their experiences via formal presentation and report. Students with an interest in health care as a clinical, political or economic topic, public policy, social services, etc. are invited to participate in this unique opportunity. Some activities will be arranged or held in conjunction with events at the University of the Western Cape and include visits to health facilities and social services in townships and rural settings.
