The Public Health Certificate at the University of Lynchburg equips you with the tools to navigate today’s most pressing community health challenges. Public health knowledge is essential for clinical leaders as healthcare becomes more integrated with community wellness and global health concerns.

This program focuses on key public health competencies, including epidemiology and biostatistics, the historical foundations of public health, and contemporary topics such as health policy, health equity, and population-based prevention strategies. 

Whether you’re responding to a current public health crisis or planning long-term solutions, this certificate gives you the training to lead effectively.

This certificate is available through the University of Lynchburg Doctor of Medical Science (DMSc) or Doctor of Executive Leadership (DEL) programs. It serves as an excellent introduction to these doctoral programs or can complement and expand your current or previous doctoral studies.
