The Robert Stempel College of Public Health and Social Work is proud to be a part of the Florida International University’s commitment to addressing the health care needs of the local community and region. In addition to FIU’s academic programs and resources, students at FIU benefit from the cultural and ethnic diversity of the South Florida community and the proximity to Latin America and the Caribbean. Through their classrooms, community based research, and practice opportunities, our student experience the dynamic multi-cultural environment of South Florida. South Florida also provides a unique opportunity to study the impact of the blending of natural and man-made environments and population growth on population health.
Our emphasis on involving practitioners, academic researchers, and the community to improve and promote public health is ideal for studying the impact of environmental, social, and behavioral factors beyond the biological risk factors in this part of our nation. Come visit us and learn of the many opportunities we are creating for our students. We invite you to the Stempel School of Public Health and to our graduate and undergraduate programs. |
