About Us

Health Promotion Department

The Health Promotion Department challenges the health attitudes, behaviors, and perceptions of our community through education, environmental management, and harm reduction efforts so that our students and faculty are free to pursue their personal and academic goals.

As part of Student Health & Wellness Services, we provide services to address the health promotion, education, and prevention needs of MSU students. The Health Promotion Department offers a wide array of campus and classroom educational programs, health promotion campaigns, and other health promotion strategies, including individualized educational programs.
