Overview
The core curriculum focuses on the areas of knowledge critical to all public health practitioners. The concentration courses give students an in-depth study of discipline specific competency areas. This value-based academic program will emphasize the areas of prevention, scientific knowledge base, and inter-dependency with other areas of knowledge and practice, and social justice.
Features
An Public Health program from University of Nebraska Medical Center focuses on five academic domains of public health at its core: epidemiology, biostatistics, health administration, promotion of health, and environmental health. Beyond this base are concentrations that provide specialized education and expertise. A culminating experience with learning in the field and gathering data for a final project prepares the student to go out into the world, equipped and prepared to take on greater responsibilities.
