Philosophy of Healthcare is an introductory, interdisciplinary course which explores the assumptions underlying a career in faith-based healthcare.

These topics will be examined through a variety of learning modalities including discussions, readings, journaling, guest speaker presentations, workshops and critical-thinking exercises. ALL Philosophy of Healthcare students are  assigned  an  Academic  Coach  with whom they will meet outside of class time as arranged. ALL UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AT AHU MUST TAKE RELP 102/103 IN THEIR FIRST TWO TRIMESTERS AT AHU.
