Gender and Health, Microcredential
Many health sciences students are drawn to women's and gender studies but struggle to fit it into their schedules. The Gender and Health Microcredential offers students an opportunity to connect with a subject that will help them better serve patients and communities. This microcredential is customizable to a student's health interests.
