TRAINING OPPORTUNITIESGraduate Certificate in HIV/AIDS StudiesThe 18-credit graduate certificate in HIV/AIDS Studies, among the first of its kind in the United States, is an academic program designed for public health graduate students and professionals interested in broadening their knowledge of HIV/AIDS. The curriculum includes complementary courses in HIV/AIDS biology; policy; epidemiology; ethnography, prevention, care and treatment; surveillance; and organizational responses to the epidemic.
