Ualbany School of Public Health

our school was created 35 years ago as a visionary partnership between the new york state department of health and the university at albany. experts at the department of health hold faculty appointments, collaborate with full-time faculty members on a wide array of basic and applied research projects, and mentor students in their labs, including the renowned wadsworth center. our location in the capital of new york provides real advantages. as the seat of government for one of america’s largest and most diverse states, the city of albany and its surrounding communities provide many opportunities for us to work with policy makers, public health professionals, non-profit organizations, and clinicians - and for students, this provides outstanding internships, field placements, and vast job opportunities. for faculty, our location also allows connections with research partners, access to culturally and economically diverse populations, and partnerships with community-based organizations.
