PBH 373 Human Sexuality
This course is designed to provide you with an interdisciplinary review of Human Sexuality. Human sexuality is a core issue in everyone’s lives- behaviorally, emotionally, physically, intellectually, spiritually, socially and professionally- as health educators and as students; as parents and as children; as individuals and as partners. Human sexuality is fundamentally tied to the social process, constantly
influenced by societal values and mores, by changing religious and secular ideas and by individual behavior and opinion. At the core of sexuality are seemingly unalterable facts: anatomy, genes, hormones, and other biological processes that influence the way humans reproduce. These facts can also be influenced by the way society sees them and it is this inherent conflict that this course will explore. Course activities will challenge you to evaluate your own personal, academic, and professional factors that impact your ability to provide and develop effective health education and promotion services.
