Delta Omega
 Honorary Society in Public Health

 Upsilon Chapter

Founded in 1924, Delta Omega is the honorary society for graduate studies in public health. The society was established to celebrate excellent academic achievement, devotion to public health principles and outstanding service in public health.

The Upsilon Chapter, established at UAB in 1989, has inducted 280 members (students, alumni and faculty) who promote scholarly pursuits in public health at the UAB School of Public Health and in the community at large.

Members are inducted annually based upon outstanding performance in scholarship, teaching, and community service in the public health arena.

Candidates are selected from each of the following groups: (1) students who are candidates for a graduate degree in public health; (2) faculty members at the School of Public Health; and (3) alumni actively engaged in public health work.
