The Department of Global Health is working with the UW in the High School (UWHS) program to offer Global Health 101: Introduction to Global Health, to high school students as early as the 2014-15 school year. Global Health will be the first Department in the University of Washington (UW) Health Sciences Schools to offer one of their courses to Washington high school students under this program. UWHS courses are taught by high school teachers, and students receive recognition for their work at most public institutions and many private ones.
