Health is the optimal well-being of a living organism. Education, professional development and research contribute to the transformation of this enterprise (industry/endeavor). The collaboration and integration of many disciplines in the fields of physiology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and biomedical technology support health education, delivery and research. New questions are asked everyday, and Michigan Tech offers collaborative opportunities for answering these questions. Although all the departments in the College of Sciences and Arts have some connection to health, research and education teams addressing fundamental health-related issues exist in the departments below. Collaborative research amongst these departments allows for progress in both human and ecological health.
Exercise Science, Health & Physical Education
Mathematical Sciences (Statistical Genetics).
Physics (Computer modeling of biomolecules, protein folding).
