Southern Illinois University Edwardsville’s (SIUE) Public Health Program is housed in the Department of Applied Health within the School of Education, Health and Human Behavior. Our Program’s vision is equitable health and social justice regionally and globally through education, research, service, and advocacy. Our mission is to develop leaders to work with diverse communities and promote health equity via an engaging and innovative teaching and learning environment grounded in student-centered culture and excellence.
Our Bachelor of Science in Public Health (BSPH) Program provides a foundation in social and behavioral sciences, educational strategies, epidemiology, health policy, grant writing, and occupational and environmental health sciences.
Our interdisciplinary Master of Public Health (MPH) Program emphasizes public health leadership and the administrative skills associated with leadership careers in public health. Coursework and practical experiences are combined to prepare students for leadership roles in a variety of communities, for profit and nonprofit health agencies, universities, and other research settings to prevent diseases and promote strategies to improve health.
