Title: Integrating Data Visualization into PUBH 401: Health Promotion & Education
College/Department: College of Health, Department of Community & Global Health
Student Enrollment: 20
Course: PUBH 401 Health Promotion & Education
Proposal: Integrating applied data visualization strategies into PUBH 401: Health Promotion & Education, a core course within the Master of Public Health program, will enhance the existing framework of health communication campaigns. While the course currently addresses foundational elements such as health theory, literacy, and the development of educational materials, the revision seeks to foster student competency in data storytelling and technical proficiency using tools like GIS, R, and Python. Equipping students with these skills aims to improve their capacity for communicating complex health data to diverse populations, thereby increasing their preparedness for the professional public health job market.
