A Message from the Dean
Thank you for taking the time to visit the College of Health and Human Services’ Web site. It is my pleasure to welcome you and invite you to explore all that we have to offer.
Click through the site to learn about the College’s exceptional academic programs. Our faculty is committed to excellence in teaching and research. Throughout the College, we are continually expanding our collaborative relationships with organizations that promote the health and well being of citizens in our local communities, the State of New Hampshire, and beyond. The curricula available in our fully accredited undergraduate and graduate programs are both comprehensive and professionally forward thinking; many serve as national best practice models.
Be sure to review the Faculty listings to learn more about professors you could have the opportunity to work with and learn from. The faculty publishes in a variety of national and international publications and provides consultation and technical assistance to our communities as well as many professional and provider organizations. Explore the Student portions of the departments’ Web pages to learn about opportunities available to and being pursued by HHS students. Along the way, make note of the many community settings and community partnerships that provide outstanding opportunities for faculty and students alike.
The College of Health and Human Services is part of a vital University, which is located in Durham, on New Hampshire's seacoast. Eighteen miles of beautiful Atlantic shoreline, Boston, and the White Mountains are all within an hour’s drive (or less) from Durham. Our location makes possible an exceptional quality of life—academically, professionally, and personally.
If you are a prospective student, I hope this site provides you with much of the information you need to determine how the College can help you to reach your goals. Whatever your interest, I hope what you have learned will motivate you to extend your exploration and visit us in person.
If you have more questions or would like to arrange a visit to campus, please contact us: e-mail school.hhs@unh.edu or call 603-862-1178.
Welcome.
Barbara Arrington, Dean
