Department of Public Health
Public Health is the art and science of preventing disease and
injury, prolonging life, and promoting health through the organised
efforts of society.
About the Department of Public Health |
The mission of the Department of Public Health is to contribute
to the good health of all New Zealanders through independent, critical
and innovative research, teaching, and community service.
The Department of Public Health is distinctive in its breadth of
academic disciplines, research interests, and its links with national
and regional health agencies.
The Department contributes to the undergraduate medical course,
but the majority of its teaching is to public health postgraduate
students.
The Department is committed to the active learning of students,
personal development of staff, openness and accountability in decision-making,
and meeting its obligations under the Treaty of Waitangi.
