We strive for equitable, efficient, evidence-based solutions to pressing health problems facing both urban populations locally and around the world.The school utilizes the resources of the nation's largest and most diverse urban university, CUNY, and of New York City, a global city that not only faces many of the world's most serious health problems, but also serves as a cradle of public health innovation.
