The mission for the Fielding School of Public Health reflects our collective values of building health and equity, and reflects our commitment to driving positive change for all people. We plan to act on this mission with efforts in the three areas that are core to the work of all great research universities: education, discovery, and service. In each of our three core domains, we affirm our commitment to developing leaders, developing evidence based solutions, and working in partnership with communities to promote health and well-being in ways that are innovative, respectful, and inclusive.
The following strategic goals support the School's Vision and Mission --
