The program will provide an introduction to the scope and tools of public health. Students will work individually and in groups to understand milestones in the history of public health, the basic tools of public health research, and the challenges to successful health promotion projects. The learning community will work in small groups to identify a significant public health problem, develop a health promotion/intervention, and consider methodology for evaluation of impact. The program will focus on public health issues in the United States but will also draw on international examples of successful interventions.
