About the Program
The Global and Community Health Program at UC Santa Cruz aims at improving health and reducing health inequalities both locally and globally.
We are dedicated to advancing health for all through a collaborative, interdisciplinary program that bridges between the sciences, social sciences, engineering, humanities, and arts with shared commitments to health justice and the development of community partnerships.
Our goal is for GCH students to leave UCSC with a broad and sophisticated understanding of what health means for individuals, communities, nations, and the planet.
