Preventive medicine is the medical specialty that focuses on the promotion, protection, and maintenance of health and well-being, the prevention of disease and disability, and the premature death of individuals in defined populations.

Programs in preventive medicine focus on one of three areas:

Programs in aerospace medicine focus on the health of a population group consisting of the operational crews and passengers of air and space vehicles, and the support personnel required to operate such vehicles.

Programs in occupational medicine focus on the relationships among the health of workers; the arrangements of work; the physical, chemical, and social environments in the workplace; and the health outcomes of environmental exposures.

Programs in public health and general preventive medicine focus on health promotion and disease prevention in communities and other defined populations.

Directions on how to search for programs in one of the above areas of preventive medicine are available here.
