Public Health is Your Health
Public health is the science and art of preventing disease, prolonging life and promoting health. Public health professionals achieve these goals through the organized efforts and informed choices of society, public and private organizations, communities and individuals.

"Public health impacts everyone’s life on a daily basis through initiatives that often go unseen. Whether responding to COVID-19, addressing inequities in birth outcomes, or changing policies on the funding of healthcare; our faculty, staff, and students make positive contributions to society and help better people’s lives.
