Public Health Minor

*Not a baccalaureate degree program

Public health represents a growing and dynamic field with opportunities to address the world's most pressing health problems. The discipline is a combination of both the science and art of advancing the health of individuals, families, communities, and populations through education, promotion of healthy behaviors, and research for disease and injury prevention. The program will provide undergraduate students with an advanced understanding of population-level approaches to protecting and improving health. The minor is particularly desirable to students preparing to pursue a health-related career.
