The Baylor Department of Public Health is a team of scientists committed to measuring health, promoting health equity, improving the well-being of vulnerable and underserved populations in every community, and training the next generation of public health researchers and practitioners.
We are pursuing a healthier world through:
- Ground-breaking research. We use innovative, multidisciplinary qualitative and quantitative methods to measure health, behaviors, and environments.
- Implementation science. We translate scientific discovery into evidence-based practice to maximize the impact of research and confront complex health challenges.
- Excellence in teaching. We facilitate learning opportunities by connecting students, communities, and research to develop practical skill sets and strengthen community capacity.
- Service-minded perspectives. We partner with individuals and communities to achieve their health goals and foster equitable, community-engaged health opportunities.
Our strong research and practice-based approaches, global health opportunities, and low faculty-student ratios provide students with quality learning experiences that help build careers.
