Research Guides

Public Health (General)

Provides resources, strategies, and information on conducting research in Public Health.

Overview

Welcome to the general guide for the SPH community. If you've been searching for 20 minutes or longer and can't find what you're looking for, feel free to give us a call! Your library informationist can:

  • Show you how to cite your sources and manage your citations
  • Help you find grants and other funding sources, as well as specific information NIH grantees need to know
  • Show you where to get assistance with statistical software
  • Provide links to other library resources for research and scholarship, teaching, and professional development

The departmental & subject guides, linked to the left on this page, provide detailed lists of information sources to help answer your research questions.  Each departmental guide lists the best sources for finding statistical data, articles, and facts for topics of particular interest to your department's faculty, students, and other researchers.
