This course is multidisciplinary in nature, and aims to equip the global audience of interested lay people, people with chronic disease, public health researchers, health clinicians, students, administrators, and researchers to reflect on the overall impact of the burden of chronic disease . It shows how all chronic diseases (obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cancer) are related by a set of common causes, and that such diseases should be tackled, not individually, but as part of a complex system, with interrelated contributing factors. These factors are genetic, environmental, psychological, economic, social, developmental, and media related.

Perguntas Frequentes – FAQ
Quando terei acesso às palestras e às tarefas?
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
- The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
- The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
O que recebo ao adquirir o Certificado?
Quando você adquire o Certificado, ganha acesso a todo o material do curso, incluindo avaliações com nota atribuída. Após concluir o curso, seu Certificado eletrônico será adicionado à sua página de Participações e você poderá imprimi-lo ou adicioná-lo ao seu perfil no LinkedIn. Se quiser apenas ler e assistir o conteúdo do curso, você poderá frequentá-lo como ouvinte sem custo.
Qual é a política de reembolso?
Você poderá pedir reembolso total até duas semanas após a data do pagamento, ou (para cursos recém-iniciados) até duas semanas após o início da primeira sessão do curso, o que ocorrer por último. Você não poderá receber reembolso após obter o Certificado de Curso, mesmo que tenha completado o curso dentro do período de duas semanas. Veja nossa política para o reembolso total.
Existe algum auxílio financeiro disponível?
Sim, a Coursera oferece auxílio financeiro aos alunos que não podem pagar a taxa. Faça a solicitação clicando no link Auxílio financeiro, abaixo do botão "Inscreva-se" à esquerda. Você será solicitado a preencher um formulário e será notificado se for aprovado. Saiba mais.

Who can enrol in the course?
As this is an open online course, anyone in the world can enrol!
Is it free for University of Sydney and students?
