The evidence-based study and practice of Public Health have never been more important as our region, state, nation, and world face the combined crises of the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change. It is time to break down silos, build partnerships and forge alliances to address these challenges.

Eastern North Carolina has significant health burdens, especially in the rural, low- resource and racial and ethnic minority communities. Many of these issues are brought to light through environmental impacts in our region, such as natural disasters and climate change, and are impacted substantially by the social determinants of health. Addressing these health threats and the disparities that stem from them are the driving forces for our teaching, research and service.

Learning opportunities of the department include: Two online Certificate programs The Master of Public Health degree program with three concentrations (which can be completed online) Two doctoral degrees: the DrPH programs in Health Policy, Administration, and Leadership and Environmental and Occupational Health. Public Health is collaborative in research and service and work with local, regional, state and national public health and health care agencies and works closely with and are guided by a diverse group of Community Advisory Board members who lend their expertise to help us achieve program goals.
