Graduate Prerequisites: Enrollment restricted to DrPH students and other degree candidates with consent of instructor. - This course will focus on developing tools for, and perspectives on, decision-making in senior public health positions through analysis of a series of case studies. Students will adopt different roles in preparing the cases, sometimes individually and sometimes in groups. The cases will address challenges faced in human resources, facilities design, quality control, organizational change and the integration of policy and program-planning. Students will be assessed on: (1) memos prepared for their roles in individual classes; (2) the quality of their participation in class discussions of the cases; and (3) their response to a case that will be distributed as a final examination.
