Abstract
Abstract At East Carolina University, faculty in the Departments of Community Health Education and Health, Physical Education, Recreation & Safety are changing the way they view baccalaureate education from a traditional approach to a competency-based approach. Competencies students must demonstrate before graduation were identified; a broadening base of supporting competencies and a prescriptive list of entry-level competencies were specified. This competency-based curriculum design evolved from two related processes: a long-range curriculum reform project within the School of Allied Health and Social Professions and self-assessment activities which led to approval of the first baccalaureate program by the Society for Public Health Education. Acquisition of student competency in compiling community health profiles illustrates both the development process and curriculum architecture for such a competency-based approach. Student terminal competencies for the entire baccalaureate program are included.
