The COVID-19 pandemic has made the public more aware of public health and the role its professionals play in addressing the pandemic. Schools and programs in public health have a new opportunity to recruit, train, and sustain the public health workforce. Academic public health can further educate the public and prepare students for meaningful careers through interprofessional education and practice-based learning.
新冠疫情大流行使公众更加关注公共卫生以及公共卫生专业人员在应对疫情方面所发挥的作用。公共卫生领域的学校和项目有机会招募、培训和维持公共卫生劳动力。通过跨专业教育和实践为基础的学习,学术公共卫生可以进一步向公众普及知识,并为学生提供有意义的职业道路。
