Therefore, the topics in this class will not be dispersed across the various areas of Medicine and Health care. Instead, students will focus on some major contemporary topics in this country concerning Medicine and Health care, and learn the possible causes and solutions of some problems we are facing. In addition, students are expected to have some specific interests related to both the topics in this class and their own areas. The outline of this class is as follows:
