in February 2025, the study board for Public Health Science and Global Health will be merged with the study board for Health Informatics.
Study Board for Public Health Science and Global Health
The overall responsibility for teaching at the faculty lies with the study board. It adopts changes to the curriculum, which are recommended to the dean for approval.
In addition, the study board works broadly to ensure the quality of the program and takes an ongoing position on, e.g. evaluations, teaching processes and the overall structure of the education. The study board also decides on credit and exemptions.
