Program details

Overview

This Master of Public Health is an in-person program accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health and lasting fifteen months. It blends classroom learning, practical experience and chances to use public health knowledge in real settings, and it qualifies for the STEM optional practical training extension. Students build practical abilities for leading in healthcare, conducting research and speaking up for community health. Graduates are ready to grasp population health and make it better, influence policy and contribute to public service. The curriculum has eight core courses, three concentration courses and two electives, together with a practicum and a capstone project. Concentrations include epidemiology and global health, where students learn to measure health around the world, evaluate epidemiological research and design studies, and health policy. The page notes that applications for fall 2027 are being accepted and that all materials must be submitted through the centralized SOPHAS service. Applicants weighing public health training can use the page to compare concentration options and understand how coursework and applied experiences fit together.
