Public Health Across the Lifespan

Course | Registration closed 6/27/2025

This course provides a comprehensive overview of key
public health topics across the human lifespan, from prenatal
health to aging care. We will examine major health
challenges, interventions, and policies that impact individuals
at each life stage. By focusing on health disparities,
preventive care, and the role of public health systems, the
course equips us with the knowledge and skills to understand
health issues in diverse populations. Through readings and
case studies, we will gain insight into the life-course
approach to public health, emphasizing the importance of
early intervention, continuous care, and aging with dignity
