The oldest medical anthropology graduate program in the country, brings together theory bearing on biology, ecology, culture, and social relations to investigate human health, disease, illness, and curing, historically and in the present. The current concentration involves a focus on adolescent, maternal & child health, health concerns in everyday life, illness narratives, cultural competence and health care, and STDs. Concentration
in Historical and The Concentraion encourages historical and ethnographic approaches to the study of cultural revitalization movements, indigenous and women's rights, international human rights, democratization, arts and media, international migration, and popular culture and mass consumption. While maintaining an emphasis upon basic research, faculty in the concentration seek to bring history and ethnography together to create sophisticated analysis of global problems and dynamics. Graduate
Certificate in Both intellectually and pragmatically, there is an emerging need for a flexible, integrative structure in graduate education that can operate in consort with existing programs to provide advanced students with focused interdisciplinary training regarding culture, health, and human development. The immediate educational objective of this program, therefore, is to present selected doctoral students from a broad array of disciplines, including anthropology, with a structure in which they can explore and acquire a secondary, interdisciplinary expertise at the interface of culture, health, and human development. Center for Health/HIV Intervention and Prevention The Center for Health/HIV Intervention and Prevention (CHIP) is a research center dedicated to the study of the dynamics of health risk behavior and processes of health behavioral change in individuals and targeted at-risk populations. CHIP researchers create new scientific knowledge and new theoretical frameworks in the area of behavior change for preventing the spread of HIV infection, medical adherence, and other health risk domains. The Center provides theory-based health behavior change and HIV risk behavior change expertise and services at the national, international, state, university, and community levels. The Center for Population Research The
Center is a community of population scholars affiliated to promote
population research, teaching, and faculty development. It produces
a range of reports running from "The Demographics of Congressional
Redistricting in Connecticut Institute of Puerto Rican and Latino Studies The Institute serves as a multipurpose interdisciplinary research and teaching program with a comparative focus on the Puerto Rican, Mexican, and other Latin American origin populations in Connecticut, the northeast,and other regions of the continental United States, as well as in Puerto Rico. Its goals include: (a) to provide institutional links among Puerto Ricans, other Latinos, and non-Latinos at this University and throughout the state of Connecticut on academic issues related to the Puerto Rican and Latino experience; (b) to produce, diffuse, and promote knowledge and information on public policy issues with special impacts on Puerto Ricans and Latinos; and (c) to foster ties between the University and the external Puerto Rican/Latino community by serving as a resource center for issues affecting that community. Center for Latin American & Caribbean Studies The Center advances teaching and learning about Latin America and the Caribbean. It is a founding member of the Latin American Studies Consortium of New England in which Brown University, the University of Massachusetts and Yale University collaborate to promote the study of Latin America and the Caribbean. While each Consortium member runs its own outreach programs for education, business and the community, they collaborate extensively and share resources.The business outreach intern works with the MetroHartford Chamber of Commerce to promote trade with Latin America. The Human Rights Institute coordinates human rights initiatives at the University of Connecticut and promotes an approach to international human rights based upon contextual and multidisciplinary research in the social sciences, humanities and law. The Institute funds research -- such as " A Profile of Capital Punishment in Connecticut, 1636-2004" and "Voluntary and Involuntary Sex Trafficking in Nepal: An Investigation into Human and Cultural Rights". It produces research papers including "Human Rights" or “Property"? State, society and the landless in South Africa" and "Rights and Reasons: Challenges for Truth Recovery in South Africa and Northern Ireland." The Institute of Comparative Human Rights establishes partnerships with a variety of institutions in different regions of the world to facilitate a truly global understanding and appreciation of human rights.
