Health Promotion

Dedicated to supporting your pursuit of a healthy & well-balanced life!

Health Promotion offers resources and education to encourage well-being within the campus community. Our programs and student Peer Educators help you navigate a variety of topics within the 7 Dimensions of Wellness and educate on how to lead a balanced life. We strive to create a campus environment to support students’ academic goals by promoting health and wellness.

Programming

The Health Promotion Office is dedicated to supporting the overall wellbeing of UND students. Our team focuses on the many factors within the campus community that influence student health & success.

We develop programs, campaigns, & resources that address key areas of student wellness, including:

Mental Health
Sexual Health
Alcohol & Drug Education
Nutrition
General Health Topics (sleep, time management, & overall self-care)

To ensure quality & effectiveness, all of our Health Promotion programs & education efforts align with the American College Health Association Standards of Practice for Health Promotion in Higher Education & the Council for the Advancement of Standards in Higher Education.

Student Data

The University of North Dakota participates in various health assessment surveys, which provide information related to student health and well-being behaviors, habits, and perceptions.
