Biography

Carolyn Runge, MPH, IBCLC is a Visiting Lecturer in the Department of Community and Global Health. Carolyn also serves as the Faculty Undergraduate Coordinator for the department.

Her professional background outside the classroom is in maternal and child health. Prior to her work in the public health arena, she was (and remains) a board-certified lactation consultant. At the Indiana Department of Health as the State Maternal Health Administrator, she assessed, implemented, and evaluated programs and initiatives that protect and promote the health of women of childbearing age throughout Indiana. She also worked at the national level for four years as the Policy and Public Affairs Director for the evidence-based program Baby & Me – Tobacco Free. In that role she helped shape the program’s curriculum, led trainings, facilitated quality assurance and quality improvement initiatives, and assisted in onboarding new states and communities to the program. She has an undergraduate degree in sociology and a master’s degree in public health from Indiana University. She is completing her DrPH in Leadership from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Carolyn Runge’s teaching philosophy centers around uncovering students’ passions and strengths so that they may use their expertise and energy to make a positive impact in the world.
