健康与行为科学（HBSC）计划的任务是应用社会科学理论和创新的研究方法来批判性地解决健康方面的新问题。该计划通过关注健康和疾病的社会决定因素，训练学生面对影响社区和人口健康的问题。这些决定因素比卫生保健系统对人口健康的影响更大。公共卫生致力于保护环境，确定人群中的疾病根源，控制疾病暴发，评估人口结构变化对经济的影响，制定干预措施以促进健康行为并制定卫生政策法规。公共卫生来自社会和行为科学，医学，护理，药学，物理疗法，商业，经济学，统计学，流行病学，法律和生物学等广泛学科，并且每一项都为各种活动提供了独特见
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) and the Colorado School of Public Health (CSPH) together created the undergraduate Public Health program. Public health professionals work to protect the environment, identify sources of illness in population groups, control disease outbreaks, evaluate the economic ramifications of changing demographics, develop interventions to promote healthy behavior and produce health policy legislation. Public health draws from a broad array of disciplines, including a range of social, behavioral, and natural sciences, each provides unique insights for the diverse set of activities involved in public health practice.<br>Students in the BS program develop a specialty in the natural sciences and public health. Graduates with a BS in Public Health will be prepared for pursuit of graduate degrees in a broad range of fields, including the natural, social, and behavioral sciences, public health, law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, business administration, and health services research. The program is especially appropriate for students intending to pursue careers in public health, as well as primary care specialties in medicine, nursing, or health policy and administration.<br>Public health is working to protect the environment, identifying sources of illness in population groups, controlling disease outbreaks, evaluating the economic impacts of changing demographics, developing interventions to promote healthy behavior, and producing health policy legislation.
