在这里学什么？

The MPH in Community and Behavioral Health prepares public health practitioners for a variety of positions related to community development, health program implementation, and health education. Students learn how to design, implement, and evaluate evidence-based interventions that are directed toward identified public health problems in populations. Bachelor’s level training in the social and behavioral sciences are good preparation for this program, but current students come from a variety of educational backgrounds.

The practicum requirement has been fulfilled in the past with organizations or agencies that are actively addressing public health concerns with intervention programs. Past sites have included the Johnson County Public Health Department, the Iowa Department of Public Health, Iowa City Family Planning Clinic, and the University Of Iowa Department Of Pediatrics.

Graduates of the CBH sub track are able to:

• Identify the major socio-behavioral phenomena, which impact the health of the public and understand the mechanisms by which they impact health.
• Work effectively with communities in defining and addressing important public health concerns.
• Design, implement and evaluate community-based behavior interventions to prevent disease and/or promote health.
• Critically assess the scientific basis for preventive interventions.
• Plan and conduct program evaluations to assess quality and effectiveness of public health interventions.
• Communicate effectively with a broad range of groups utilizing state of the art communication media.
