Why Study Population Health?
The role of population health is to deliver value-based care to the public, and The University of New Mexico College of Population Health is working to strengthen community well-being and build more sustainable, resilient communities. Population health uses the framework of integrated health strategies to work collectively with communities to improve health outcomes and expand access, quality, and affordability of health care.
If this mission speaks to you, you belong at the UNM College of Population Health. Here, you'll gain the skills to find trusted information, identify innovative solutions, and contribute to positive change in your community. We prepare future leaders to use population health data, public policy, and real-world science to uncover opportunities that make a lasting impact.
At The University of New Mexico College of Population Health, we bridge community health, epidemiology and health system policy for a hands-on experience.
