Overview

Texas is one of the most geographically diverse states in the country. From deserts and mountains to flat plains, wooded river valleys and rolling hills, Texas has something for any nature lover. In addition, large cities like Dallas, Houston and San Antonio have professional sports teams, world class restaurants, museums and shopping to suit any urban dweller. Much of the state’s population lives in rural areas, however, where there are high levels of obesity and minimal access to health care. Because of this, there is a great need for public health workers in Texas.
