Overview

Through a combination of lecture, laboratory assignments and practicum requirements, Health Promotion from Morehead State University teaches you both wellness theory and practical skills while preparing students to improve the health of individuals and the community using behavior change strategies.

Students in the health promotions program complete an intensive internship prior to graduation. The internships are done in an agency that reflects their professional focus. The health promotion program also prepares graduates to sit for the Certified Health Education Specialist certification (CHES) if desired.
