MW6120 Professional Focus A: Power and Privilege
This course provides a foundation for students to understand power and privilege in personal, professional, institutional and societal systems. Marginalization, discrimination and oppression must be examined and understood from the micro- to macro-levels in order to create just and equitable relationships, institutions and societies. Students in this course examine their own biases and experiences as they explore historical roots of power and privilege, current manifestations of inequity and exclusion, and possibilities for advocacy and positive change for a more equitable and inclusive health care system.
