A minor in Public Health and the Arts exposes students to both public health and the arts with the goal of promoting an understanding that community wellbeing encompasses many aspects of daily living and not just individual behavior. By combining foundational courses in public health and arts with discipline-specific courses in arts and humanities, students will gain an understanding and appreciation for how arts and culture are essential components of individual wellness and healthy communities.
