Health Economics
Committee met and submitted report on future plans. This has been posted on BLOG for further comments and suggestions prior to implementation.
This is a very valuable program, not being offered elsewhere. Nonetheless, there are several
problems with our current offerings. Dr. Durre-Nayab requested to form a suitable committee of
experts to chalk out a five year vision for this program. Several alternatives need to be evaluated:
1. Merge with Economics Program, offering Health Economics as a specialization.
2. Develop and entirely separate and distinct program; logistic issues of publicity, demand,
supply need to be considered to create a viable program.
3. Strengthen existing collaborative ties with GIZ and offer split programs.
