What if everything we design and build was done with health as a priority?

Realizing the vision of Health in All Design will require a new hybrid workforce that can fluidly move across domains of design, research and healthcare. The Health & Design Fellowship is designed to train architects, planners and designers from industry in the most rigorous tools of health services research that will enable them as transformative leaders in practice.

Fellowships range from engagements are as short as 2 months and for as long as 2 years. Fellows are expected to maintain their professional practice during this time.

Curriculum

During this fellowship, the fellow will acquire and hone a robust set of research skills in one of several possible domains: qualitative and quantitative clinical research methods, organizational & social change, program development & evaluation, team management, implementation science, innovation, and policy analysis. These domains and skills will be used to carry out an applied research project focusing on how the built environment can be designed to improve health.
