According to Linda P. Fried, Dean of Columbia's Mailman School of Public Health and co-authors, seven core strategies of a public health education of the future include: leadership; a global perspective on health; a life-course approach, understanding that one's health in later life is determined by events many decades before and to the present; active engagement across disciplines; critical thinking; teamwork and collaboration; and technical skills.
