Majoring in Public Health for UNDERGRAD?

Recently I've been interested in the Public Health department for undergrad...is there anyway I can major in this? I looked through some "Majors offered" lists on college websites and they didn't seem to have the major "Public Health." I guess they don't offer it? The specific colleges I'm talking about are the UCs, rochester, and vanderbilt.

as a current high school senior, i based a lot of my college searching around finding an excellent public health undergrad program. many colleges do offer a B.S. in public health (or a variation of it), so if you want a list of some schools to look into, just shoot me a pm.

glad to hear you're interested in the field
paige

(and for the record, UC Berkeley offers it, although it is an impacted major: UC Berkeley School of Public Health)

My D is at Emory and very interested in Public Health. She is majoring in anthropology with a minor in global health. THere are many opportunities in public health between the grad school, the Carter Center, the CDC, the med school and the undergrad ECs, etc.
