Indiana University-BS-Community Health

The proposed structure of this program is consistent with the standards required by the Council on Education for Public Health, the federally recognized accrediting body for public health academic programs. Students who choose this degree option are required to take courses related to the five core areas in public health: epidemiology, public health administration, environmental health, biostatistics, and social and behavioral health. They also take courses that expose them to the basic fundamentals required of a public health professional in the areas of measurement and evaluation, theoretical and practical treatment of the concepts of disease prevention and health promotion, health disparities, research methods, public health program planning, and community health.
