About this Event
Pitt’s Global Health Case Competition is designed to give students simulated professional experience in developing strategies to address a real-world global health issue. Interdisciplinary teams of graduate and undergraduate students will develop a plan to address the scenario in a holistic way.
As a part of training for developing innovative and holistic strategies, Tina Batra Hershey, JD, MPH Associate Professor, Health Policy and Management Co-Director, Multidisciplinary Master of Public Health Affiliated Professor, University of Pittsburgh School of Law will share insights about Overview of Health Policy and Equity on October 22th.
The case competition is sponsored by the Graduate School of Public Health’s Center for Global Studies, Global Health Student Association, the Center for Bioethics & Health Law, and Pitt’s Global Studies Center.
