CPEB 205 - Disease and Discrimination, Sociology Focus (4 Cr.) (GCR RPP)
What role does discrimination play in the development of disease? How has stigma affected the experience of disease as well as the resources allocated to address it? In this course we examine the intersecting inequalities (race, class, sex, sexuality, and others) that contribute to mortality and morbidity. We will study the determinants and sequelae of both infectious and non-infectious diseases as well as how they have been framed in political discourse. Working individually and in cooperative groups, students will embark on explorations of a health concern of their choice. Students may NOT take this course if they have completed the CPED 202 course with similar content/title. Restricted to first-year and sophomore students, and others with instructor permission. Students are limited to one CPE course per semester. Greenberg. Offered Spring 2019.
