ABOUT PHC
Formerly the NUS Public Health Society, the NUS Public Health Club (PHC) is a student-led interest group with the dual missions of bringing together the NUS Public Health undergraduate community, and promoting public health in and out of NUS campuses. Serving as the bridge between undergraduates and the Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health (SSHSPH), PHC is the go-to platform for students to deepen their interest in Public Health, as its various departments provide many avenues for experiential learning and innovative change.
OUR VISION
A student-led platform for NUS students to explore their Public Health interests through experiential opportunities, honing their skills and creating meaningful networks with like-minded peers in the process. We will also function as a catalyst for change on campus, empowering staff and students to adopt healthier choices through multi-pronged and innovative approaches.
