About Us

Welcome to the Department of Population Health! Our department prepares students for careers and further education in health administration, public health, health informatics, health professions education, gerontology, community health and health science.

Led by experienced educators, researchers and practitioners, each program maintains a curriculum that is challenging, rigorous, applied, and current. We believe that a comprehensive education requires classroom teaching, service learning and field-based experience. Our diverse and student-centered faculty are passionate about teaching, developing best practices through cutting edge research, and serving the community. Our faculty are wonderful mentors to our students – readily accessible and eager to involve students in their research and community initiatives.

I am tremendously proud of this department and the vital contributions we make to the overall mission of the School of Health Professions and Human Services, Hofstra University, and most importantly to the community-at-large. I encourage you to browse through our webpages to learn more about our programs and faculty and the breadth of both educational and practical experiences our department has to offer. Please also feel welcome to reach out to me with any questions.

Wishing you good health
