About the Department
The Charles Stewart Mott Department of Public Health at Michigan State University (MSU) College of Human Medicine is a unique, community-partnered academic unit located in Flint, Michigan. Born from a 2011 proposal by the Flint community to create an academic department that would improve health through community-identified solutions, the unit began as a Division in 2015 and became a full Department in 2022.
This department represents a radical experiment in community-partnered administration. Its governance, focus areas, and faculty hiring processes are deeply integrated with the Flint community, which has a long history of activism and is considered a birthplace of community-based participatory research (CBPR). Community members have served as the first President of the American Public Health Association in over 100 years and continue to lead faculty search committees. This approach has yielded over $200 million in extramural funding and real-world impact, including two NIH-funded Centers and the nation's first city-wide unconditional cash prescription program for pregnant and postpartum people.
Supported by a $25 million gift from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, the department is in a phase of rapid growth, seeking to expand its strength in implementation science, continue its innovative governance model, and leverage policy advocacy to move findings into action.
