Department Chair's Welcome  

 

Christina Holub


Welcome to the California State University San Marcos Department of Public Health. Our Master of Public Health (MPH) program is dedicated to building a diverse professional workforce that will meet the 21st century public health needs of our local and global community. To that end, we are proud to offer a curriculum that addresses health disparities, embraces diversity, reinforces the practice of cultural competence and calls upon our students to gain community-engaged public health experience, through research, service learning and internships. We offer two concentrations: Health Promotion & Education and Global Health. We invite you to join us by enrolling in our accelerated program. I look forward to working with you to meet your educational and professional goals in the field of public health.

Starting Fall 2023, our Department will be offering a Public Health Minor to undergraduate students. Consisting of 15 units, a minor in Public Health prepares students to gain interdisciplinary knowledge and skills complementary to their primary field. We invite you to learn more about our new minor on its dedicated webpage. 

Please read An Open Letter to Our California University Communities from the deans, directors and chairs at schools and programs of public health in California urging you to take an authorized COVID-19 vaccine as soon as it is available to you.
