PMO 1024 The Constitution; Public Health and the Body Politic
Upon entering military service we undertake an oath to defend the Constitution but do we really know or fully understand what the Constitution is or means? Are we aware what civic, military, and medical duties are promoted and/or constrained by it? This course provides students an opportunity to learn the history behind, the structure and framework of the Constitution, its application today, and to specifically consider its significance and applicability to Public Health. Students taking this course will read source materials to understand the intellectual and historical roots, the writing of, and its application by the Framers and those who followed.
