Creating Health in Harmony at Adtalem
Health in Harmony explores the interconnectivity we share with animals and environment, and what it takes across multiple disciplines—physicians, veterinarians, public health experts, environmental scientists, government officials—to achieve the best possible health outcomes for all.
From One Health programs and cutting-edge research at Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, to public health programs at Chamberlain University and Walden University, all of Adtalem’s institutions give their students an opportunity to create harmony for healthcare.
