The PPH at Northwestern represents the best the university offers, from educational opportunities in the classroom and with government and community organizations in Chicago and around the world, to ground-breaking research in the health of populations, to service to improve the health of our communities. Northwestern’s PPH strives to educate professionals to span the boundaries between their professional fields–medicine, basic science, anthropology, among others–and public health.

The many definitions of public health reflect the many ways that public health improves our lives.

The interests and expertise of the NU PPH faculty and students reflect public health’s multiple disciplines and faces. Learn more about public and population health at Northwestern by exploring our website.
