In the summer of 2020, the Wen Public Health went from a single Department of Population Health to a school with four distinct departments representing the foundations of public health: the Departments of Environmental and Occupational Health; Epidemiology and Biostatistics (both of which migrated from the School of Medicine); Health, Society and Behavior; and Population Health and Disease Prevention.

Leveraging the strengths of Wen Public Health, the campus has officially established the Joe C. Wen School of Population and Public Health, making us the fourth school of public health in the 10 campus UC system and the first in Orange County, Calif.

In the 2024 U.S. News and World Report Rankings, Wen Public Health ranked among the top 50 schools/programs of public health. Wen Public Health is made up of approximately 1,450 undergraduates and roughly 200 graduate students as of Fall 2024, and has nearly 175 dedicated faculty and staff who support the school's academic programs and research endeavors.
