1 unit

Internship in Interrogating Health, Race, and Inequalities is intended for advanced undergraduates who are enrolled in the course L48-4003 (Interrogating Health, Race, and Inequalities) and who have previous coursework in (medical) anthropology, public health, urban policy, or African and African-American Studies. The internship experience is designed to facilitate students' familiarity with research and evaluation strategies that **both **address structural factors shaping health outcomes and are sensitive to community needs and socio-cultural contexts. The internship experience will contribute to students' in-class understanding of the ways that race as a historically produced social interacts with other axes of diversity and social determinants to produce particular health outcomes. The course requires **permission from the instructor** and L48-4003 is the co-requisite.
