Health Education Program

The Health Education program strives constantly to improve instructional programs, increase scholarly productivity, and expand the service involvement of faculty members. We will provide you with a foundation of skills and experience that will enable you to teach health and safety education  or to serve as a professional in business or in private and voluntary agencies. We can help you prepare for a useful and rewarding career. 

We help people live safe, healthy, happy lives. We help communities maintain safe and healthy environments for their citizens. We train health advocates for schools and communities. We help people live well, approach aging with intelligence, and die with dignity.  

The need for increasing numbers of health educators during the next ten years has been well documented.  There will be positions in a variety of settings at local, state, national, and international levels, in schools, colleges, and universities; business and industry; public and private health agencies and institutions; and health care organizations.
