Global Health

this class is an easy A if you keep up with the reading and actually try on the assignments. There is a lot of reading, but the writing assignments that went along with the reading were very helpful in solidifying my understanding of the material.

Prof. Torres is a very passionate teacher who has tons of knowledge about global health! However, he does drone on and on about topics and at times, it is definitely boring. But with that being said, I would highly recommend taking this course if you are looking to gain a writing credit as there are only 2 writing assignments he gives all semester long, and he is very willing to help you to any extent you need to ensure you end with at least an A-.

I had a great experience in Professor Torres's course. From the beginning of the course it was evident that Professor Torres really cares about all of his students. He took the time to get to know each one of us on an individual basis. I feel that this level of commitment is something that comes from being a Midd alum and someone who is truly invested in our future once we leave Midd. As for the course itself, I learned a great deal. The material that Professor Torres taught comes from the many years he spent practicing what he now preaches. Learning from someone with such deep experiences was not only very fascinating but also very inspiring. The course format was also well thought out and manageable and we often had very interesting class discussions facilitated by him which was cool. The skills I learned in class will definitely help me in my career, more so, if I ever wish to participate in non-profit work, I now have a stable background to do that which I feel is very rewarding. Definitely take this class if you are interested in global health, entrepreneurship, or even consulting!
