Dr. Sean Cleary, Epidemiology, School of Public Health
2020 Community Engaged Faculty of the Year
Dr. Cleary has over ten years of experience in community engaged scholarship, including both his teaching and research. In PUBH 6299: The Autism Experience a Public Health Perspective, students serve with local community organizations and build relationships with local autistics who join them during class. Informed by these experiences and relationships, students then complete research and advocacy projects in collaboration with community members. Cleary sought input and feedback from local non-speaking, autistic young adults in the design of the course itself.
