Center for Health Policy and Services Research
The Center for Health Policy and Services Research (CHPSR) at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville was established in the fall of 2007 to establish a more comprehensive public health academic environment through expanded teaching, research, and service collaborative opportunities. These efforts build on the existing Master of Public Health program, including the dual MS-MPH in Public Health Nutrition and the combined DVM-MPH within the College of Veterinary Medicine. The center coordinates public health-related academic units on campus by creating and facilitating multidisciplinary opportunities which link numerous Colleges and Institutions across campus, the local and regional health departments, and communities throughout the area.
Mission Statement
Identify, recruit and integrate resources related to public health across the University that are designed to enhance/expand research and outreach collaborations and encourage partnerships with local, regional, and state programs of public health.
