Our Mission: The mission of the KSU CVM Public Health Club is to promote
the science, art, and practice of public health, epidemiology, biosafety
and preventive medicine, especially in regard to zoonoses and infectious
diseases. The Club carries out this mission by providing a forum for the
discussion of public health issues of importance to the veterinary
profession, the training of veterinary students in the implementation of
public health strategies, and the promotion of awareness within the
veterinary community as well as the public community. The Club will
consistently support programs to promote and improve the education,
communication and collaboration of public health veterinary efforts in
order to reduce human and animal disease and disability, to improve
human and animal population well-being, and to integrate the
contributions of veterinary medicine to the successful practice of
public health. (adapted from the AAPHV mission statement
