Independent Study Courses Developed and Taught
for Maternal and Child Health Doctoral/Master’s Students
Description: These courses are designed to meet the individual needs of each student and vary in content from
year to year. Typically, students and the instructor meet for 2-3 hours a week to discuss the students’ learning
objectives and the progress. The topics of the courses vary greatly by students’ interests. For example, in 1992,
three students were interested in learning about the health of incarcerated Maternal and Child Health populations,
so the course focused on the health of incarcerated women and their children.
