Faculty Advising in the HSOC Program
Faculty Advising in the HSOC Program
To facilitate interdisciplinary study of health and society, each college at UVM has at least one health and society faculty advisor. Four of those faculty advisors teach the introductory core courses for health and society. To request an advisor to help guide you through your courses for the Health and Society Program, please email healthandsociety@uvm.edu.
If you are a faculty member who would like to teach a course for the program or would like to be affiliated with the program in another capacity, contact the program director (jlshea@uvm.edu) concerning your interest in affiliation.
