Out today! The 2024 Epidemiology Capacity Assessment from CSTE and the Big Cities Health Coalition outline the unmet workforce and capacity needs in applied epidemiology across U.S. state, territorial, and large urban health departments.
The ability of the U.S. public health system to protect us from current and emerging health threats is at stake. The capacity to deliver essential epidemiology public health services for the U.S. has declined — and is in danger of declining further due to lack of sustained federal funding, especially with the end of COVID-19 funding.

CSTE and Big Cities Health Coalition 2024 Epidemiology Capacity Assessment
Today CSTE and the Big Cities Health Coalition released the 2024 Epidemiology Capacity Assessment (ECA). The reports outline the unmet applied epidemiology workforce and capacity needs across the U.S. within state, territorial, and large urban health departments.
The 2024 ECA reveals that applied epidemiology workforce and capacity needs in health departments remain unmet and are in danger of declining further without sustained funding.
The ECA is the most complete and comprehensive national data on the U.S. applied epidemiology workforce. For over 20 years, CSTE has reported on staffing, vacancies, funding, training needs, and other domains for applied epidemiologists, the key sector of the U.S. public health workforce.
The 2024 ECA reflects data from all U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and for the first time, territories. Additional data are also available on the epidemiology capacity of 35 large urban health departments.
