From the introduction: "The objective of this research was to evaluate self-perceived learning outcomes, defined as knowledge, skills, and attitudes, for student pharmacists who participated in an international APPE. Using the [Consortium on Global Health] CUGH global health competency framework, [the authors] specifically examined the impact of country location and duration of the experience on learning outcomes."

From the abstract: "This article describes a model to contextualize global health learning for students who complete international advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPEs). Students from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Purdue University, and the University of Colorado completed a post-APPE survey which included open-ended questions about knowledge, skills, and attitudes one week after completing an international APPE. Students were also invited to participate in a focus group."

From the abstract: "The purpose of this paper is to describe a short term study abroad program that exposes engineering and nursing undergraduate students from the United States and Italy to an intercultural and interprofessional immersion experience . Faculty from Purdue University and Sapienza Università di Roma collaborated to design a technical program that demonstrates the complementary nature of engineering and public health in the service sector, with Rome as an integral component of the program. Specifically, the intersection of topics including systems, reliability, process flow, maintenance management, and public health are covered through online lectures, in class activities and case study discussions, field experiences, and assessments."
