Overview

Saginaw Valley State University’s Bachelor of Science in Public Health transforms students into a professional ready to persevere on behalf of society’s most vulnerable members. A flexible curriculum with a choice of health promotion and administrative tracks shepherds them into becoming a change agent, where, out in the workforce, they will strive to improve access to healthcare and analyze and control the spread of disease. Illuminating both angles of public health, this comprehensive, rigorous program is firmly rooted in science, preparing graduates to understand the obstacles communities face through courses in experimental biology, epidemiology, and healthy aging. At the same time, topics shed light on the inner workings of the healthcare system and its multifaceted structure. The School wants students to feel fully engaged with the field of public health, no matter which track suits their career goals. Reflecting this, the core curriculum delivers a comprehensive perspective of the field’s principles and practices, presenting a versatile foundation to explore the science-leaning health promotions track or strengthen their leadership skills studying health administration. While completing the Basic Skills and General Education requirements, graduates will allocate some of their courses toward experimental biology, statistics, professional ethics, critical writing, anatomy, and physiology. They will be introduced to the field’s pressing issues, principles, and research methodology for assessing health behaviors and problems and discover how healthcare is delivered, including through the use of technology and the structure of the U.S. healthcare system. Branching out into more policy-relevant subjects, the core covers public health practices at local through national levels, helps expand students' multicultural competence, and touches on epidemiology. In the process, they will see how cultural, socioeconomic, and ethnic variables affect healthcare delivery, how diseases are distributed, and the methods organizations use when tracking an outbreak through a community.
