The program equips students to undertake research in both fundamental and practical health education. These essential principles form the philosophical basis of the Health Education Ph.D.: Students engage with a distinguished team of professional health educators (the graduate faculty) and explore a specialized knowledge base (health education/promotion literature). The curriculum aligns with the core responsibilities and competencies established by the National Commission for Health Education Credentialing, Inc. (A Competency-Based Framework for Graduate-Level Health Educators, 1999). While our doctoral program emphasizes research, it also demands proficiency in health education/promotion practice. Earning a Ph.D. in Health Education helps students build a strong academic and professional profile.
