Report on Public Health and Undergraduate Education 

In cooperation with the Association for Prevention Teaching and Research (APTR), CCAS has published "The Educated Citizen and Public Health."  The report is a result of a 2006 conference that brought together leaders in public health, arts and sciences, and health-professions education to plan how undergraduates can become better informed about public health for the sake of lifelong citizenship--a goal all the more important given the health challenges facing the world now and in the future. To view the full report, click Publications, then "The Educated Citizen and Public Health: A Consensus Report on Public Health and Undergraduate Education."  Copies of the report are available upon request.  Write us at ccas@wm.edu with your shipping address and the number of copies requested.
