The
UW Summer Field School for the
Study of Language, Culture and Community Health in Ecuador provides field and
classroom study of languages, culture, and community-based health care
in the Andean and Amazonian regions of Ecuador for an interdisciplinary
group of UW health science students. It offers a six-week immersion
opportunity to study language and cross-cultural issues relating to
health care in a non-Western setting. Students will learn valuable
language skills, examine the complex cultural, ecological,
socioeconomic, political, and biomedical factors influencing health in
the Andean and Amazonian regions of Ecuador, and learn about global
public health issues through experiential field activities. The Field
School course is offered for three credits through the UW Department of
Population Health Sciences.
