Prospective Students
The MPH program prepares students for careers in the public, non-profit, and private sectors. Our goal is to help our students become skilled professionals committed to improving the health of communities by translating rigorous scientific research into sound, evidence-based public health policy and practice.
The master’s degree is geared toward individuals who have had relevant experience in the community or in health care institutions or who have a demonstrated commitment to public health. Students in the MPH Program range from new college graduates planning careers in public health to seasoned physicians seeking to broaden their understanding of the field.
The program’s unusually high faculty-to-student ratio gives students a great deal of interaction with instructors who are accessible, approachable, and encouraging of student involvement in critical projects.
