The lifestyle choices we make today have a profound effect on the quality of our overall health in the years to come. During this unprecedented time, with individuals being concerned for their personal health, and the healthcare industry and government navigating a global health crisis, the online Master of Science in Health Promotion from American University, will give you the skills to empower people to choose health-promoting behaviors and policies.
You will graduate with a dual understanding of health science and management, positioned to assume a leadership role in the fight against cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, other leading causes of death, and even a global pandemic.
We are committed to supporting you and your educational goals, so we are offering a 10 percent cost reduction on spring courses this year. This savings will provide students with some financial relief during this difficult time and additional options for advancing their education.
Graduates of the MS in Health Promotion may have the credentials to acquire certifications in Worksite Health Promotion from the National Wellness Institute—as well as the Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES) certification (if they have already completed the necessary undergraduate health education coursework).
