A group of Tulane undergraduates spent four weeks in Malaysia this summer as part of the School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine's first international undergraduate service-learning course.
Led by Dr. Latha Rajan, the course offered students the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the social contexts of infectious diseases including the challenges posed by cultural, governmental and educational policies and practices related to curbing the epidemic of HIV/AIDS in Malaysia.
In this video produced by New Wave team member Ryan Rivet, Rajan talks about the valuable learning experience that the Tulane students had during their time in Malaysia.
