Through rigorous coursework, research experiences, and community engagement, our students will learn to use evidence-based and theory-driven practices to advance the health and well-being of all people in communities, locally, nationally, and globally. Public Health & Wellness graduates will be qualified to enter various professions within public health, government and non-government agencies as well as be able to pursue further graduate study.
