PHLD 9331: 01P - Public Health Policy, Regulation & Ethics

The purpose of this course is to provide advanced graduate students with an overview of the health policy environment in the United States and prepare students with the skills and tools that they need to analyze and compare between various health policy alternatives. The course emphasis is on contemporary topics in health policy research and various proposals of health care reform. The student will also get introduced to comparative health systems from other nations. By the completion of this course, the student will gain a detailed understanding of contemporary health policy issues and about the health policy making process

PUBH 7530 Section A The Public Health Integrative Capstone Experience

This course serves as a culminating experience designed to promote refinement of the hard and soft skills necessary for the public health workforce. Throughout the semester, students acquire skills in the integration of basic public health concepts and refine the application of discipline specific knowledge. This course relies on a case-based format that promotes problem solving and critical thinking in the context of real world public health problems

PUBH 7890- Environmental Health Policy

This exploratory study of environmental health policies course seeks to investigate the overarching question of which environmental health policies can be enforced through public health and successfully implemented to address the common good of the community. Data will be collected cross-section-ally and methods including research review and secondary data analysis. A policy- oriented review will examine current knowledge of environmental health policies nationally, state, and at the local county level. An integrative review will summarize past research on environmental health policies and will highlight unresolved gaps in findings to support this research. A theoretical review will summarize and analyze the common good ethical decision-making approach to environmental health policies and regulations

HSPM 7133A - Public Health Policy & Ethics

The course prepares learners to understand complex health and human service-related systems in order to inform effective practice-based ethical decision-making. The primary focus of the course relates to public health policy and practice. Major content areas include health policy institutions, the health policy process, ethical political considerations, social determinants of health, workforce, health care financing, medical technology, health care organizations, the public health system, primary care systems, and other health-related issues impacting the health of the public. Strategies of implementing change through policy making and the legislative process are covered

PUBH 3432 Section A (CRN 85533) Introduction to Global Health Policy

This course introduces the range of cultural and policy approaches different countries take to health, healthcare access, and related population-level health interventions. As part of this course, students will compare different healthcare systems from selected countries. (3 credits

This course is designed to give doctoral candidates the opportunity to determine and refine their dissertation research topics including identifying potential dissertation committee members particularly the chair

Bosonic behavior of entangled fermions

Two bound, entangled fermions form a composite boson, which can be treated as an elementary boson as long as the Pauli principle does not affect the behavior of many such composite bosons. The departure of ideal bosonic behavior is quantified by the normalization ratio of multi-composite-boson states. We derive the two-fermion-states that extremize the normalization ratio for a fixed single-fermion purity P, and establish general tight bounds for this indicator. For very small purities, P<1/N^2, the upper and lower bounds converge, which allows to quantify accurately the departure from perfectly bosonic behavior, for any state of many composite bosons.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, accepted by PR
