UB's School of Public Health and Health Professions is one of only a handful of schools across the country that includes health-related professions as an integral component of the public health educational and research system.
In the School of Public Health and Health Professions (SPHHP), we believe that we can only achieve our mission of improving the health of populations, communities and people if we are a diverse and inclusive academic community.
Patients receive safer, high quality care when health professionals work effectively in a team, communicate productively and understand each other's roles.
