About Us
Mission
The Department focuses on identification and evaluation
of health problems and health inequities in underserved populations and
development and implementation of innovative interventions that can dramatically
reduce disease burden. Programs in the Department of Global Health
provide a rich educational resource, promote and support interdisciplinary
research programs that address global health disparities, and provide
opportunities to translate educational and research programs into improving
the health of underserved populations through service activities in developing
countries. Research
projects and service-based activities provide excellent educational
opportunities. Students and trainees enrolled in educational programs
facilitate new areas of research and practice. The Department of
Global Health serves as a model for integration of educational, research
and service activities, all focused on sustainable improvement of health
in developing countries.
