Overview

Jeremy Sarachan (media and communication), Chair

The ability to accurately and effectively disseminate information about science and medicine is crucial for public health and safety, and the communication of proper health practices is necessary for the successful implementation of wellness initiatives (e.g., seat belt and helmet wearing, vaccinations, safe sex practices, the cultural acceptance of mental health treatment).

The minor in health communication prepares students in the sciences, nursing, psychology, and related fields to create professional media messages for social media, news organizations, and video outlets.

The program includes core classes in epidemiology, public relations, and health communication and education, along with relevant electives.
