The department is committed to a forward-looking vision of interdisciplinary public health, foregrounding the biological, social, cultural, economic, ethical, political, and psychological dimensions of public health. Public health is inextricably intertwined with advancing justice and equity, as well as cultivating knowledge of local, regional, national, and global forces and contexts. The public health minor will prepare students, whether as members of communities or in their careers, to engage with public health challenges that require critical thinking, ability to synthesize diverse sources of information, and the ability to communicate effectively. It will draw from the depth and breadth of the liberal arts to expose students to key concepts and methods in public health advocacy, practice, research, and policy.
