There is a large disparity in health status here due to various social, economic, and biological factors. Many health problems need to be addressed in this area, such as low birthweight, preventable hospitalization, obesity and drug use.\u00a0 Therefore, the job prospects in public health are quite favorable in the local community and neighboring states.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0 minor in Public Health consists of five courses (i.e., 20 credits). All courses in the minor discuss relevant health topics under the interdisciplinary, intercultural, and international scopes. The students will gain knowledge on the history, core values and concepts of public health. They will be able to use tools of public health data collection and evidence-based approaches to identify and address major health needs and concerns of populations.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Particularly, in the midst of a global pandemic, the need for public health officials and data scientists to come together has never been more apparent.\u00a0 The collection and use of accurate and reliable data to make informed decisions about intervention strategies is a cornerstone of our current public health organizations.\u00a0 This minor allows you to understand the landscape of public health to make a real difference in people&#8217;s lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\"><span class=\"fa-stack\"><i class=\"fa fa-circle fa-stack-2x\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-down fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-up fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><\/span>Requirements of the Minor <\/div><div class=\"c_content\">\n<ol>\n<li>Students are required to take 5 courses\u00a0(lecture and lab co-requisites count as one course)\u00a0to complete this minor.<\/li>\n<li>Courses fulfilling the requirements for the primary or second major may count towards the requirements of the minor, but may not exceed one-half of the credits required in the minor. A School core does not need to be completed for a minor.\u00a0 Minors are open to students regardless of school affiliation.<\/li>\n<li>Not all courses are offered each semester.
