课程简介
The academic area of study in Public Health is part of the College of Health and Human Services. Students pursue a Public Health concentration leading to a degree with specialization and job skills applicable to one of three professional areas of study: community health, healthcare administration, or occupational health and safety. The faculty supports the idea of focused academic preparation in each concentration such that Public Health BS graduates will have job appeal in their chosen professional field.<br><br>Students can expect to be involved, both in class and field experiences, in areas that deal with significant issues within general Public Health practice and within each concentration, such as health care costs and quality, consumer health issues, alcohol and other drugs, human sexuality, health promotion, health management and administration, unintentional injury causes and prevention, and other personal, occupational, and community health and safety issues.<br><br>The Public Health Bachelor of Science program at Sacramento State is a highly sought-after degree. Due to the large number of applications, the program has a pre-major status. Students wishing to become Public Health majors must complete a series of required lower division courses in order to be eligible to declare the major. Students should check the Department website for requirements and speak with the Public Health academic advisor to help with their academic plans.
