Overview

When we think about health, we often imagine doctors, nurses, clinics, and medical interventions. But what actually makes a person, community, or society healthy? Who is healthy and who is not? Why? We know the conditions we need to flourish, but how do we create healthy communities—with safe housing, healthy and nutritious foods, and access to green spaces?

Key Facts

From crosswalks to controlling toxic chemicals, every decision we make has the potential to shape human health. The world needs health professionals—from doctors to community activists to policy experts—who collaborate on coordinated, equity-oriented actions to build healthy communities.

As a student in Clark University's Health, Science and Society major, you’ll reimagine the way you think about health. You’ll see how the biomedical sciences, the social sciences, and the humanities each offer important lenses through which to tackle complex health challenges and promote health equity. You will work with faculty from more than five departments who are engaged in a range of domestic and international research activities. You will gain a broad and holistic foundation in health sciences, and many ideas about how to pursue to launch yourself for a variety of careers in health.
