At the University of Iowa College of Public Health, we are working to make global education a reality for all by creating a comprehensive collegiate culture of global health. We provide resources allowing students to engage more tangibly with global public health in the classroom and across campus. Through international research collaboratives and partnerships, students and faculty alike work together to address pressing global issues and crises, ultimately moving the College of Public Health toward becoming a global leader in public health education, practice, and research.
