2022-23 Undergraduate Catalog

Public Health Education Program

The Bachelor of Science in Public Health Education program is designed to equip students to address critical shortages associated with health-related education and optimal healthcare resource utilization. Communities will benefit from these students’ expertise in the University's geographic region, especially due to the lack of access to health care, the abundant geriatric population, and the current crisis impacting our nation. The curriculum for the Bachelor of Science in Public Health Education will prepare students to develop and impact practices and policies that respect and respond to diversity in communities through the translation of evidence-based research. Students will be positioned to gain employment with healthcare systems, schools, health departments, insurance companies, and other community agencies upon successful completion of the program.
