Today's Major Monday is Public Health, in the Department of Nutrition & Health Science. A major in public health, is where passion and purpose meet. This program is a great choice for students who are interested in health issues in their neighborhood, city, state or beyond. They also have a passion for helping others. This program focuses on prevention, impact, equity, and justice for people and communities. It addresses the root of health disparities. Students in our program are often out in the community advocating for health issues, analyzing the data, developing programs, and communicating best practices. Post graduation our students work in a variety of settings, such as community organizations, public health departments, hospitals and clinics and more.
