History:

in 1991, the first group of students admitted to associate degree programs in disease control and family health was enrolled.
In 2004, with the independence of the School of Health, the Department of Public Health was established, and some years later, a discontinuous bachelor's degree program in public health (in 2009) and a continuous bachelor's degree in public health (in 2010) were offered by the Department for the first time.
Also, Social Determinants of Health Research Center affiliated with the Department contributes to research on social issues such as addiction, violence, divorce, and mental disorders.
