HLTH 4800: Field Study in International Health 6 s.h. Required GPA: 3.0

Open to all majors, this Summer Study Abroad program is designed to provide a comparative analysis of the health care delivery systems in the U.S. and England. Guest faculty from Britain’s most prestigious health organizations will provide students a comprehensive picture of the British National Health Service (NHS) and how it compares to our system in the U.S. We will also visit other international public health organizations and institutions with headquarters in London, such as the World Health Organization, British Medical Association, Public Health England, British Heart Association and Doctors Without Borders and others.

After a week of site visits with British and international public health policy makers, we will explore many of the historical and cultural sites of London and also venture beyond London to cities like York, Cambridge, Salisbury, and Canterbury. Admission was highly competitive in the previous years and is expected to be so again. So, contact Ms. Vail-Smith early if you are interested and want to be on our email update list (vailsmithk@ecu.edu).
