Abstract

Online courses offer students’ flexibility and universities more opportunities to expand their student enrollment. With the increase in online degrees to accommodate nontraditional students and working professionals, online courses serve as an avenue to reach more people and increase the dwindling public health workforce. With the start of accreditation of undergraduate baccalaureate programs in public health, the need for work on public health course development at the undergraduate level is needed. This article outlines how an online undergraduate introduction to public health course was developed. All elements of the course are discussed from course structure, design, and assignments. In addition, evaluations of the course from the instructor and the students are discussed along with lessons learned.
