Health Policy and Law Student Organization.

Mission

The primary objective of the Health Policy and Law Student Organization (HPLSO) is to establish a network among public health students interested in health policy and law, health educators, and professionals to create opportunities for personal, intellectual, and professional development. Additionally, we will foster a community amongst students in the Health Policy and Law (HPL) Certificate through various local service and social events. We aim to be a resource for students in the HPL certificate program to further their involvement in BUSPH and make a lasting impact in our community.

Values

  • Collaboration: Within HPL student certificate, outside certificates, professors/faculty members, outside local communities through volunteering
  • Education: Focus on health/policy/law education; personal/intellectual curiosity; Professionalism in and out of the classroom
  • Promotion: Resource for students in and outside of HPL certificate program
