The primary goal of the program is to ensure that the health promotion students have mastery in the multi-disciplinary approach toward community health and health education.

All health promotion students will complete a 200-hour internship experience and a health promotion seminar to gain practical experience in their chosen career path. Our vision is to be recognized nationally and internationally for research, innovative curriculum, a multi disciplinary approach, and applied learning in preparing professional leaders in physical activity and health.
