The organizational structure of the JPHCOPH was developed to facilitate the work of the faculty within the three major faculty roles at Georgia Southern University: Teaching, Research, and Service as well as to assist the College in achieving its Vision, Mission, Goals, and Objectives.
Collaboration, facilitation, and personal and collective responsibility are fundamental to the culture of JPHCOPH. Maintaining this culture is required for the effective functioning and advancement of our College.
The following is a listing of the components of the JPHCOPH organizational structure: Office of the Dean, two departments, three centers, and the Public Health Laboratory. Although the academic programs are embedded within the departmental structure, they are governed by the program directors. Associate Deans and Department Chairs are appointed by the Dean. College business is coordinated through standing and ad-hoc committees.
The faculty of the JPHCOPH consist of the professors, associate professors, assistant professors, instructors, lecturers, and adjunct appointments in the two departments. Responsibilities of the faculty within the College include teaching, scholarship, and service. In addition, faculty members may be assigned administrative duties by the Administrative Officers as deemed necessary for effective and efficient functioning of JPHCOPH. The faculty within each Department work in collaboration with the Administrative Officers within the JPHCOPH to advance the Vision, Mission, Values, Goals, and Objectives.
