cultural factors related to or driving individual and population health and health disparities. Students in our program apply social and behavioral science theories and methodology to predict and explain health-related behaviors as well as develop and evaluate health promotion and disease-modifying and prevention programs.</p> <p>We emphasize the importance of community-based participatory research and the application of research findings through a variety of behavioral and social science health promotion strategies. Classes are engaging, interactive, and relevant to current health issues.</p> <p>Health Behavior students have opportunities to become involved in faculty research projects on a broad range of health issues, including:</p> <ul class="bulletedList"> <li>community-based health promotion</li> <li>family and adolescent health</li> <li>health communication</li> <li>homelessness</li> <li>LGBTQ health issues</li> <li>obesity prevention/lifestyle interventions</li> <li>prevention and control of addictive behaviors</li> <li>program evaluation</li> <li>sexual health risks, including HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment</li> </ul> <p>Graduates of the Health Behavior program have found employment in local, state, and federal agencies; non-profit/community-based organizations; private research foundations; and in academic settings.</p>  <div id="mod-custom220" class="mod-custom custom"> <div class="soph-events-focus-box soph-events-focus-box--400w"> <h2
