Public Health: It's who we are

At the CPHHS, our vision is to ensure lifelong health and well-being for every person, every family and every community. And that vision of creating healthy people is also part of OSU’s Strategic Plan, Improving Human Health and Wellness, and is one of three signature areas of distinction along with Advancing the Science of Sustainable Ecosystems (Healthy Planet) and Promoting Economic Growth and Social Progress (Healthy Economy).

Establishing an accredited College of Public Health and Human Sciences at OSU was proposed and adopted as an institutional goal in 2009. Toward that end, the Division of Health Sciences, consisting of our new college and OSU’s Colleges of Pharmacy and Veterinary Medicine, was established in June 2011. Deans of these colleges and their faculty recognize the opportunity to establish a college of public health as a forward-thinking and collaborative approach to achieving their division’s goal for Healthy People using the One Health approach.
