CICS - Northtown Campus – Health

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Health will be presented within both disciplinary and interdisciplinary frameworks.  The disciplinary will emphasize three major goals:  1.) Understand principles of health promotion and the prevention and treatment of illness and injury; 2.) Understand human body systems and factors that influence growth and development; and 3.) Promote and enhance health and well-being through the use of effective communications and decision-making skills. The interdisciplinary perspective will examine these goals as they relate to public health and current social and political issues, identity, cultural issues involving morality and belief, and global health concerns.
