DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There is a serious gap nationwide in the number of individuals whose training emphasizes global health issues. The number of professionals with firsthand experience in global health issues is critically low. The overall objective of the Case Framework Program for Global Health is to interest and retain undergraduate, graduate and professional students in international health-related careers by expanding the perception of what are relevant fields, facilitating interdisciplinary study and providing opportunities for applied experiences. The students' access to the relevant curricular material will be facilitated by identification of existing courses across disciplines, modular design of new courses that allow students to better select the material of interest, development of an undergraduate SAGES (the Seminar Approach to General Education and Scholarship) seminar and development of a group of secondary advisors to help guide choices. A key component of the program will be to create a limited number of exchange and support programs with Departments and Ministries of Health in developing countries of Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas via existing contacts within the Case community. For example, students' will be able to apply their training in policy, modeling, data analysis, pathogen detection and resource allocation to small scale issues and databases in countries that have good data collection infrastructure, but poor capacity for analysis and research. This activity will be conducted within workshops on campus as well as at the international sites themselves. Students who fulfill the general core competencies and those specifically related to their main discipline will be identified as having completed a concentration in Global Health on their transcript in addition to a degree in their discipline or profession. The specific aims of this proposal are: 1. To establish an administrative framework for program implementation 2. To identify and develop course components of an integrated curriculum 3. To develop application oriented workshops 4. To develop application oriented research experiences

描述(由申请者提供)：在全国范围内，培训重点是全球健康问题的个人数量存在严重差距。在全球健康问题上有第一手经验的专业人员数量非常少。全球卫生案例框架计划的总体目标是通过扩大对相关领域的认识，促进跨学科研究和提供应用经验的机会，使本科生、研究生和专业学生在国际卫生相关职业中感兴趣并留住他们。通过确定跨学科的现有课程、对新课程进行模块化设计以使学生更好地选择感兴趣的材料、举办本科生SAGES(通识教育和奖学金研讨会方法)研讨会以及发展一组帮助指导选择的中学顾问，将促进学生获取相关课程材料。该计划的一个关键组成部分将是通过病例社区内的现有联系，与东欧、非洲、亚洲和美洲发展中国家的部门和卫生部建立有限数量的交流和支持计划。例如，学生将能够将他们在政策、建模、数据分析、病原体检测和资源分配方面的培训应用于那些拥有良好数据收集基础设施但分析和研究能力较差的国家的小规模问题和数据库。这项活动将在校园内的讲习班内以及在国际地点本身进行。满足一般核心能力的学生以及那些与其主要学科具体相关的学生将被认定为除了所在学科或专业的学位外，还在成绩单上完成了全球卫生专业的集中学习。这项建议的具体目标是：1.建立计划实施的管理框架2.确定和开发综合课程的课程组成部分3.开发面向应用的研讨会4.发展以应用为导向的研究经验
