The Medical Sociology concentration is designed for students seeking applied research and policy careers in public and private health, mental health, and social service agencies, as well as those who plan to apply to Ph.D. programs with a medical sociology concentration. Courses examine the phenomena of health, illness, disability, mental health issues; the social organization of health care delivery; and health disparities.
