With so many more students majoring in public health, it is more important than ever before for the MOR to provide students with opportunities to experience public health in action. The report states that over 500 undergraduate institutions offer public health courses. In Connecticut there are Five high school classes, a community college (Middlesex), Southern CT State University, Yale, UConn, University of St. Joseph, and Eastern Connecticut State University and Western Connecticut State University (Health Promotion).
Below are two articles about the growing efforts and enrollment in undergraduate public health across the nation, including community colleges.
The Connecticut Public Health Association is an affiliated association of the American Public Health Association (APHA). APHA is the national voice of public health and champions the health of all people and all communities. They are the only
organization that combines a 140-plus year perspective, the ability to influence federal policy to improve the public’s health and a member community from all public health disciplines and over 40 countries. Learn more at www.apha.org.
