The greatest need in the field of Community Health is for people connected to diverse communities, rooted in these relationships, with linguistic and cultural skills. Our Community Health Major is designed to emphasize “competencies” in addition to specific knowledge gained from course work. Employers are eager to see what students can do, as they apply basic knowledge. On the basis of this evolving understanding, we have designed this major to be built on a small core of key courses that provide those specific knowledge needs, combined with a minor in one of many existing areas in the college curriculum. The goal is for students to gain a coherent knowledge through the core, but in the choice of the minor they decide the specific focus of their approach to issues in community health, and thus hone applicable skills. The public health core functions of assessment, policy development and assurance guide the majors in achieving foundational knowledge.
