The Spring 2013 MPH cohort will begin in January 2013. Application deadline is October 15th, 2012.
The Master of Public Health (MPH) program in the School of Nursing and
Health Professions prepares graduates to coordinate and manage public
health care programs in global, urban or community settings with an emphasis on
health promotion and health education.
It is a multidisciplinary professional degree awarded for studies related to public
health - not a scientific research
degree. Instead, our students produce an original graduate project based on the
culmination of learning during the six semesters, a 300-hour fieldwork
internship, and a capstone synthesis that demonstrates mastery of the
profession.
Now accepting applications for Fall 2012. Apply here.
The program is organized among a cohort model of instruction
that goes year round (no summer breaks) and takes six semesters to complete. The cohort meets in-class one evening per week, with an equal amount of work done online from home each week. Thus, students enjoy weekly interaction with their cohort and professors, but are also able to balance their academic aspirations with personal, family and professional obligations.
