Global Health at Penn State College of Medicine

The Global Health Scholars Program looked different this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we're so glad that we got to spend the past two weeks discussing global health topics and challenges with our rising second year GHSP medical students!

In the face of hatred and bias, we must speak out. We must not accept apathy, indifference or silence, otherwise we allow hatred, prejudice and intolerance to grow. - Penn State University President Eric Barron. The Global Health Center stands against racism and is committed to addressing health inequities through education, service, and advocacy.

Congratulations to all of the 2020 Penn State College of Medicine Graduates! We're so honored to have been a part of the medical school journey for the 28 Global Health Scholars Program students who graduated this past weekend.

Eleven of our graduating Global Health Scholars Program Students are recipients of 2020 Dean's Awards! Congratulations to all award winners on your accomplishments!

Congratulations to Global Health Center Director, Dr. Ben Fredrick, for being named as the 2020 recipient of Penn State Global Program's Outstanding Leadership in Education Abroad Award!!
