What will it be like to be a physician in the 21st century? In this class we will explore some of our historical roots and also look abroad, as we attempt to answer this question. You will learn about such diverse topics as smallpox, malaria, disaster planning, trauma surgery, and international relief missions. We will have several interesting guest lecturers and go on some memorable field trips (all during scheduled class time). If you are interested in a career in medicine and want a broad exposure to the field, this class is for you!
