Overview

Public Health is a broad field that deals with issues as diverse as chronic diseases, environmental health hazards, malnutrition, sexually transmitted infections, community violence, social and economic inequality, substance abuse, and much more.

As different as all these issues may seem, the people who work to combat them share something essential in common. They are all driven to serve — not only to prolong people’s lives, but to improve the quality of those lives.

Key Features

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), healthcare jobs are on a path to expand by 13% over the next several years. That’s nearly three times the growth rate of all occupations in the same time frame.

Public health jobs — many of which require a master’s degree — are set to keep pace with that expansion. Health education specialists could see a 12% increase in employment. The need for epidemiologists could grow by as much as 26% — twice as fast as the rest of the healthcare sector.

As a public health professional, you’ll find fulfillment in knowing that the work you do can change the lives of many. You’ll also find reassurance in knowing that the work you do won’t be going away. Join the degree at Monroe University.
