The rigorous and selective Global Public Health (GPH) undergraduate programs offer CAS students an interdisciplinary approach, blending public health with another College-based academic discipline (GPH must be paired with another major). Students benefit from faculty and courses across NYU's entire university system. This innovative framework addresses the growing global need for public health professionals with cross-disciplinary expertise. The curriculum combines classroom learning with hands-on experiences and study abroad components, equipping graduates with comprehensive training for diverse career paths.
GPH provides interdisciplinary public health education across undergraduate, master's, and doctoral programs. Leveraging NYU's Global Network University and the innovative spirit of its community, the program fosters pioneering research and education aimed at achieving health equity worldwide.
This major capitalizes on the Sociology Department's strengths in theoretical innovation and evidence-based research on critical social challenges. Graduates with this combined specialization pursue careers in healthcare, law, government, and social services, or continue their education in sociology, public health, or related fields.
