This class explores the sociology of health, illness, and disability at an advanced undergraduate level. It explores health and class, racialization, colonialism, gender, sexuality, and mental health, and disablement. Weekly tasks include semi-structured discussion, and the course ends with a summative writing assignment. In course assignments and weekly discussion, students will apply sociological perspectives to health outcomes, aurally and in writing. Through these assessments, students will bridge theories of health outcomes with empirical data.
