Graduate Certificate in Indigenous Health
University of Arizona

Program Details

Help fill the gap in Indigenous healthcare with this online public health degree.  With Indigenous health being disproportionately worse than that of the general population, this program was developed and implemented by public health experts with experience working with Indigenous peoples.  Learn to engage in evidence-based public health practice at the leadership, management, and supervisory levels, both in America and abroad.  Courses emphasize Indigenous models and frameworks rooted in:

  • Culture
  • Language
  • Identity
  • Place
  • Community History

The curriculum is taught by faculty who not only have experience working with Indigenous peoples but who also have a history of using web-based technologies to teach.  Even though you will earn this public health degree online, you will still benefit from a faculty advisor and a graduate certificate coordinator who will work with you to ensure success.

All credits can be applied toward future graduate programs in public health.
