First-year (R1ST) Course subtitle: Leadership and Health

Subtitle description: What does it mean to be a leader? What does it take to become a leader? This course will cover features of leadership that are important for success in health professions and will discuss how leadership skills shape the responses that individuals, organizations, and nations can use to influence health. Students will be actively engaged in learning about these issues from a local, national, and global perspective as well as those within our UMass campus, and will explore their own leadership style and skills.
