Overview

Public health is about health promotion and disease and injury prevention through research, community intervention and education. It also is about eradicating health disparities.

Key Features

The Public Health - Health Behavior Health Promotion program from The University of Arizona is based on a philosophy of health education, health promotion, and disease prevention, to improve the quality of life of individuals, families and communities. The HBHP discipline focuses on three areas:

Sociocultural factors that influence health and health behavior
Scientific and theoretical basis for planning, implementing, and evaluating effective public health education
Health promotion and disease prevention programs

The goal of facilitating behavior change for healthy life

The program provides students with the opportunity to acquire the knowledge and skills that are essential for the promotion of health and prevention of disease in culturally diverse populations.
