This professional doctorate, the Doctor of Public Health (DrPH), develops versatile public-health leadership skills for national and international practice, training students to develop, implement, and evaluate policies, programs, and interventions addressing complex public-health issues. Described as a unique program within the French-speaking world, it follows a 90-credit, coursework-based path without a thesis or dissertation, completed over a minimum of six terms full-time or twelve terms part-time, with a maximum of fifteen terms full-time or eighteen terms part-time. Courses are offered during the day and evening on the Montreal campus, and students must pass a comprehensive exam by the end of their sixth full-time term or ninth part-time term. The program prepares graduates for senior leadership roles in public-health organizations, government agencies, and international bodies.

The program admits once a year for the Fall term.
