The Social Inequality, Health, and Policy BDP is overseen by a panel of faculty members from departments across UT Austin. The faculty panel oversees the curriculum for the BDP, reviews applications from prospective students, and participates in community-building events. Members of the faculty panel also mentor BDP students in connecting experiences.
