Grief, Loss, and Death: Population Mental Health Perspectives
SBS 237

Course Information

Description

Public health students have few academic opportunities to engage with the profound themes of grief, loss, and death, even in an era of pandemics, climate change, and widening health disparities. In this 8-week seminar-style course, we apply a population mental health perspective to grief, loss, and death in a self-reflective, supportive environment. Students can expect to acquire an understanding of the core theories and empirical methods in population mental health, grief, loss, and death. Students will apply these acquired skills and knowledge to achieve their learning goals within an ungrading framework.
