Western Public Health Casebook 2020: Cases from the Schulich Interfaculty Program in Public Health
Sinopsis
The Master of Public Health Program (MPH) at Western University is a 12-month full-time program that incorporates a 12-week practicum. The MPH Program curriculum includes innovations such as case-method learning, Brown Bag seminars, Integrative Workshops, field trips and career counselling. The Brown Bag seminars allow the students to hear from and interact and network with practitioners from the field. The faculty of the MPH Program are drawn from various Faculties across campus, and represent a broad range of disciplines pertinent to public health.
Western’s MPH Program relies extensively on the case-based/experiential method of learning. The Program aims to deliver 60% of pedagogic material using the case-based approach – a unique feature not found to a similar extent in other MPH Programs worldwide. The case method of learning is not about the traditional lecture-style classroom setting, but is about the
student being an active part of the learning experience, which means learning by doing. It introduces complex and often ambiguous real-world scenarios into the classroom, forcing students to think and make decisions, often with incomplete and inaccurate data.
