Student Affairs
Our students are among the most talented in the nation. They come from over 35 countries and every region of the U.S. Many of our students are fluent in several languages and are actively engaged in research and consultation in some 70 countries throughout the world. They come to the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health in Los Angeles to receive state-of-the-art public health training combined with practical, hands-on experience, where a melting pot of cultures, industries, and urban issues provide unparalleled opportunities for research, teaching and service. Our students thrive in our Southern California location where they have the unique opportunity to be involved with cutting edge health care issues as many of the health system changes currently sweeping the country have origins in Southern California

For over half a century our School has provided an environment where excellence has been nurtured and developed. A distinguished list of our graduates carry on as agents of change in a variety of communities and organizations. Beyond the classroom, the School provides many opportunities for students to be involved in a number of programs throughout the Los Angeles community. We encourage you to take full advantage of these possibilities.
UCLA is located in the most diverse county in the country. It is one of the prominent universities where research and teaching address some of the most critical issues of society.
During your time at UCLA, we encourage you to work closely with our Student Affairs staff in the Dean's Office and in your own Department. They are well prepared and ready to assist you in your quest for a degree and a career in public health. The Student Affairs Office offers information and resources designed to attract and assist potential students with admission and to help current students with enrollment, advising, degree program issues, and career counseling. Most importantly, the Student Affairs Office exists to help applicants and students pursue their goal of becoming public health professionals.
Please do not hesitate to stop by to meet our Student Affairs Office staff if you have any questions, or contact them at (310) 825-5524 or stop by the office. We look forward to working with you during your stay at UCLA!
