The Department
of International Health offers one of the few
undergraduate programs in international health in the United
States with unique opportunities for hands-on learning locally,
nationally, and abroad.
The Bachelor of Science in International
Health focuses on public health and health systems management,
specifically emphasizing how the environment, culture, economics,
and politics interact to influence health status around the
globe.
While at Georgetown University, students learn from faculty
experts who have had distinguished careers with organizations
such as the World Bank, the Pan American Health Organization,
and the World Health Organization. Students also collaborate
with faculty on federally funded research projects.
A majority of alumni pursue graduate or medical degrees at top
world institutions, including Georgetown University School of
Medicine, Emory University Rollins School of Public Health, Johns
Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health , and London School
of Tropical Medicine & Hygiene. Graduates also work in medicine,
law, public health, policy, and epidemiology.
