“Public Health Elevated."
What This Means: We are not just reimagining public health at Colorado School of Public Health; we are leading the charge in public health education, championing health equity, conducting innovative research, and connecting and building partnerships for a healthier future. The vision is about elevating how we advance, teach, research, and deliver public health.
“Rising Together for a Healthier Future for All”
Our Commitment: This line is crucial. It defines us. We believe in a healthier future shared by everyone and we aspire to do all that we can to achieve this goal. We are a community that collaborates across our three campuses, with the communities that we serve, and with public health partners across the state and around the globe to work towards the improvement of health for all people. As champions of health equity, we address inequities through our research, teaching, and practice, engaging authentically with communities, locally and globally.
To stand at the forefront of a changing world, you will need the passion and identity of a collaborator and innovator. At the Colorado School of Public Health we hold both. As an accredited, collaborative school of public health, we stand ready to create healthier futures, build stronger partnerships and steward shared resources for the betterment and health of communities in Colorado and around the world.
As a collaboration of the University of Colorado, Colorado State University and the University of Northern Colorado, we are redefining the identity of public health to be an identity of collaboration.
Across Colorado you’ll find our research teams in schools working hand in hand with teachers to improve the health of local youth; our students learning firsthand about disaster response and emergency preparedness, worker safety, and more; and our staff at local nonprofits working to advance our mission of health in the classroom and community.
Our Inclusion, Diversity, and Health Equity mission is to build a diverse and representative academic community which recognizes the importance of social and economic justice in relation to health. ColoradoSPH is committed to working to build an inclusive, culturally competent institution which includes the environment, policies and procedures, faculty, staff, leadership, and student body.
