After teaching in Dublin for four years and completing a Masters in Education I decided to further my research in the area of mental health promotion and children. I enrolled as a PhD student with the Health Promotion Research Centre in 2008. As part of my PhD I am evaluating the implementation of an emotional wellbeing programme in Irish Primary Schools. Being a part of the Health Promotion Research Centre, in my opinion has been instrumental in the progress I have made to date. The approachable nature of the staff in Health Promotion and the close network that has been established between fellow Health Promotion PhD students creates an environment of contribution and constant learning within which I work. Doing a PhD in Health Promotion has provided me with the opportunity to engage with international experts in my field and to showcase my work internationally. I have also gained a wealth of teaching experience over the past year-and-a-half.

Analyze and intervene in pressing public health issues.
How do we prevent disease? How do we build healthier communities? The study of health promotion and disease prevention aims to answer these important questions by identifying the factors that affect health and investigating the most successful means of intervention.
You'll conduct original research; design, implement and evaluate interventions to prevent disease; and learn how to communicate research findings to promote public health.
There's no better place to study than UNMC. We have a history of meeting unprecedented global health challenges, from the Ebola outbreak to the spread of COVID-19.
Our nationally ranked program has a low student-to-faculty ratio and a highly collaborative learning and research environment. Our faculty are leaders in health promotion and disease prevention research. They will mentor you from the start of your training through the completion of your degree.
Faculty research areas cover a broad spectrum of public health issues, including adolescent health, chronic diseases, community health, health inequities, indigenous health, leadership development, maternal and child health, nutrition, obesity prevention and control, and the social determinants of health.
Dissertation.
Students are required to complete and defend a dissertation. We encourage you to begin exploring potential research topics as soon as you enter the program.
Applicants must hold a master’s or other advanced degree in a field related to health promotion and disease prevention from a recognized college or university. Exceptional students with a bachelor's degree will also be considered. Students entering the program without a master's degree must complete an additional 27 credit hours of coursework.
Graduates of the program will be prepared for careers as scientists in government and private research agencies, as faculty in colleges and universities, and as leaders in public health agencies in Nebraska, nationally and internationally.
Many doctoral students receive a graduate assistantship, which provides financial support including a stipend and paid tuition for a set period. Assistantships are competitively awarded and typically require 13 to 20 hours of work per week under the direction of a mentor.

In recent years, public, professional, governmental, and medical groups have increasingly come to recognize the need for more health and wellness promotion initiatives, as the majority of adults do not meet the minimum recommendations to eat healthfully, exercise more, and make behavioral changes that can reduce disease and prolong their lives. With the focus of healthcare shifting toward preventive care and education, the demand for qualified health educators is projected to rise 21% by 2020.* Now is the time for students to gain the knowledge, skills, and credentials needed to plan, implement, and evaluate prevention programs and services. With an online PhD in Health Education and Promotion degree, students can help groups and individuals lead healthier lifestyles or conduct research in an area that will help make the world a healthier place.
As one of a small number of online doctoral programs that is fully dedicated to this topic, Walden’s health education and promotion degree program explores both individual and population health, focusing on health behavior theory and techniques for changing behaviors. Using the latest technology, students will review case studies that touch on current trends and research and explore best practices from a global perspective.
The PhD in Health Education and Promotion has been designed to reflect the Eight Areas of Responsibility for Health Educators outlined by the National Commission for Health Education Credentialing (NCHEC) and to prepare students to sit for the national Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES) and Master Certified Health Education Specialist (MCHES) exams. Walden enrollment specialists can provide information relating to national certification exams; however, it remains the individual’s responsibility to understand, evaluate, and comply with all requirements relating to national certification exams for the state in which he or she resides. Additionally, prospective students are advised if they choose to relocate to carefully review, evaluate, and understand the requirements of the applicable licensure board in the state in which they intend to relocate. Walden makes no representations or guarantee that completion of Walden coursework or programs will permit an individual to obtain national certification. For more information about the CHES and MCHES exams, students should visit http://www.nchec.org .
At the completion of this program, students will be able to:
Specialization in behavioral health, specialization in global health, specialization in management and leadership, specialization in online teaching in higher education, specialization in population health, specialization in research.
Specialization courses (15 credits).
See requirements by specialization above.
*Students are continuously enrolled in HLTH 9101 for a minimum of four quarters until completion of their dissertation with final chief academic officer (CAO) approval.
To complete a doctoral dissertation, students must obtain the academic approval of several independent evaluators including their committee, the University Research Reviewer, and the Institutional Review Board; pass the Form and Style Review; gain approval at the oral defense stage; and gain final approval by the chief academic officer.
