Texas A&M School of Public Health

Texas A&M School of Public Health #1 School of Public Health in Texas. Largest school of public health in Texas and 6th nationwide. Yet, each of them share a passion for learning.

The Texas A&M School of Public Health is committed to transforming health through interdisciplinary inquiry, innovative solutions, and development of leaders through the Aggie tradition of service to engage diverse communities worldwide. At the school, our professors care about impacting the community with their research as well as their students. Professors have research projects ranging from eme

rgency preparedness to community health development. Students use faculty as advisors, and each student participates in a practicum during their stay. Students have conducted epidemiologic studies, assisted in programs/centers of faculty, and many others have served as interns in Texas and abroad. The school offers five graduate degrees, one undergraduate degree and a certificate program. Students earn a master of public health degree concentrated in one of six areas: epidemiology, biostatistics, health policy and management, health promotion and community health sciences, environmental health, and occupational safety and health. SPH also offers master of health administration, doctor of philosophy in health services research, and doctor of public health degrees. Students in the Dr.P.H. program will choose a concentration in epidemiology (with an emphasis in environmental health) or a concentration in health promotion and community health sciences.

Could 10 minutes in nature make a difference?

A new national survey found that nearly 45% of Americans spent less than two hours in nature during the previous week.

Texas A&M School of Public Health Regents Professor Jay Maddock, director of the Center for Health and Nature, says even brief time outdoors can support our physical and mental well-being.

And there’s an opportunity for healthcare providers: 83% of Americans said they would spend more time outdoors if their doctor recommended it.

Sometimes, better health starts with stepping outside.
