DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Founded in 2001, the University of Virginia's Center for Global Health (CGH) builds on a 23-year program in Geographic Medicine. The CGH promotes the engagement of faculty and students in the development of multidisciplinary research and service projects that address global health issues. Through existing collaborations with international colleagues and institutions, CGH annually sponsors over 40 UVa students in mentored global health research and service projects abroad. In addition, 8-10 international research fellows, competitively selected from our collaborating institutions, come to UVa each year for training and research with UVa faculty mentors. Over 80 such fellows have now trained at UVa, and 100% have returned to their home countries to help build collaborative programs that include trans-university Centers for Global Health in Brazil, Philippines, Ghana, and South Africa. In the last four years, the number of global health-related courses and activities at UVa has exploded. Both undergraduate and professional students have formed interest groups related to global health, and student demand for information, career advice, and opportunities in global health has grown markedly. We therefore recognize the need for a Framework Program in Global Health to build a sustainable strategy to incorporate global health into curricular offerings across the university. We have seen how individual courses can develop and succeed. The Framework Program will reinforce links between existing courses and programs, institutionalize and formalize credit for work in global health, including the development of degree programs, and foster the creation of new opportunities for collaboration within the University and between our international partners. Our Framework Program will bring together three principal partners at UVa: the Schools of Medicine and Nursing, and the College of Arts and Sciences. It will include 5 components: 1) A Global Health Curriculum Working Group, coordinated by the Center for Global Health, to convene 8-10 faculty members from the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Arts and Sciences to plan and implement global health curricula and coordinate participation by their respective schools. 2) The Working Group will develop multidisciplinary global health curricula for undergraduate, graduate, and professional students across the university. 3) A University-wide conference schedule engaging UVa faculty, international fellows, and students in global health issues will invite visiting scholars from collaborating international institutions. 4) Expanded global health career planning services through website resources, internship placement, and mentoring from former global health scholars, fellows, and faculty contacts. 5) A coordinated, university-wide plan to raise funds to sustain global health programs at UVa.

描述(由申请者提供)：弗吉尼亚大学全球健康中心(CGH)成立于2001年，建立在一个为期23年的地理医学计划的基础上。CGH促进教职员工和学生参与开发多学科研究和服务项目，以解决全球健康问题。通过与国际同行和机构的现有合作，CGH每年资助40多名UVA学生在海外指导全球卫生研究和服务项目。此外，每年有8-10名国际研究人员从我们的合作机构中竞争性地挑选出来，与UVA的教师导师一起来UVA进行培训和研究。目前已有80多名这样的研究员在弗吉尼亚大学接受培训，其中100%已返回本国，帮助建立合作项目，其中包括巴西、菲律宾、加纳和南非的跨大学全球卫生中心。在过去的四年里，弗吉尼亚大学的全球健康相关课程和活动的数量呈爆炸式增长。本科生和专业学生都形成了与全球健康相关的兴趣小组，学生对全球健康信息、职业建议和机会的需求显著增长。因此，我们认识到全球健康框架计划的必要性，以建立一个可持续的战略，将全球健康纳入整个大学的课程设置。我们已经看到了个别课程是如何发展和成功的。框架计划将加强现有课程和项目之间的联系，将全球卫生工作的学分制度化和正规化，包括发展学位课程，并促进为大学内部和我们的国际合作伙伴之间的合作创造新的机会。我们的框架计划将把弗吉尼亚大学的三个主要合作伙伴聚集在一起：医学和护理学院，以及艺术和科学学院。它将包括5个组成部分：1)全球健康课程工作组，由全球健康中心协调，召集来自医学院、护理学院和文理学院的8-10名教职员工，规划和实施全球健康课程，并协调各自学校的参与。2)工作组将为整个大学的本科生、研究生和专业学生开发多学科的全球健康课程。3)大学范围内邀请UVA教职员工、国际研究员和全球卫生问题学生参加的会议时间表将邀请来自合作国际机构的访问学者。4)通过网站资源、实习安置和来自前全球健康学者、研究员和教职员工联系人的指导，扩大了全球健康职业规划服务。5)一项协调的、全大学范围的计划，以筹集资金维持弗吉尼亚大学的全球卫生项目。
