<p>Could anybody explain the differences between these 2? (besides the fact that one is in the College and one in NHS?)</p>
<p>the main difference is probably the number of science courses that you take. You should look at the websites of both programs to see the courses you take. In International Health, the science courses you take are Human Biology I and II, Chemistry of Human Functioning (if you're pre-med you'll take Gen Chem I and II instead), and Microbiology. In Bio of Global Health, you'll take General Bio I and II, Gen Chem I and II, Orgo I and II, Genetics, Biochemistry, Lab research, and 4 more electives. In International Health, you can take NHS science electives like Pathophysiology, pharmacology, genetics of health and disease, immunology, etc. In International Health, you'll also take Global Patterns of Disease, Epidemiology, Ecology of Global Hunger, Globalization and Health, etc. The really unique thing about the I-Health major is you have three internships built into the major, and the big one is going abroad for a semester implementing a health promotion/disease prevention project/study in an underserved area. This is the big difference b/w the two majors. So, the Bio of global health is more science intensive, but international health has a more balanced course load and 3 internships built into the program.</p>
