VCU emerging School of Public Health Development

VCU is proud to be developing the first School of Public Health in the Commonwealth of Virginia.  The school was officially established in January 2005, when VCU designated the existing Department of Biostatistics and Department of Epidemiology and Community Health as the founding units.  The Center on Health Disparities was established in November 2005, followed by the first new academic department, Social and Behavioral Health, in September 2006. Two additional academic departments, focusing on (1) environmental and occupational health and (2) public health policy and management, are planned.  During its development phase, the School of Public Health will remain a sub-unit of the VCU School of Medicine.
