Our Community Health Promotion (CHP) program emphasizes developing policies and programs to improve the health of certain populations.
Our graduates pursue public health careers in a variety of settings including non-profit organizations, state and local public health agencies, and healthcare companies.
As a CHP major, you will work alongside internationally recognized public health experts. Our student-to-faculty ratio is low and our program is flexible. We provide you with enough elective credits to concentrate in policy, global health, or complementary and alternative medicine. You can also tailor your electives to meet your own interests.

(Students who want to pursue a PhD in Community Health Promotion should apply to the behavioral track of the Epidemiology PhD.)
Thank you for considering our program and the University of Minnesota. We look forward to receiving an application from you.
