At Brown, each student brings their dynamic background and personal experience to their studies. Fostering their educational journey is about supporting them and giving them permission to express themselves, find their voices and challenge the status quo. And by training a new, diverse generation of public health leaders, we are investing in better health outcomes for communities across the globe.
