These methodologies are applied to a broad range of clinical and public health concerns domestically and globally, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, environmental exposures, infectious diseases, and reproduction.
The Ph.D. in Public Health program focuses on seeking solutions to significant public health problems and applying and integrating new knowledge into public health research and practice settings.
