SCOM 471. Culture and Health Communication

3.00
This course explores how we define and study culture in health communication. Specifically this course compares the culture-centered approach to studying culture and health communication to the cultural sensitivity or culture as barrier model. In this course we apply various theoretical lenses to understand diverse health beliefs and engage in dialogue about our own health beliefs.
