The Master in Public Health prepares students as practitioners of public health and as leaders in public and private sector agencies and organizations. Graduates are well-prepared to hold positions as public health professionals in local community organizations, hospitals, health management organizations, government agencies, the military, academia, and the private sector. Instructional faculty are leading teachers and researchers in the field of public health as well as local practitioners in the specialized fields that comprise each of the option areas. The program’s rich and diverse curriculum provides students with the concrete tools they need to operate competently in the field after they graduate.

The major goal of this program is to develop a new cadre of culturally sensitive public health professionals with a population and health disparities focus. In accordance with the Council on Education for Public Health accreditation criteria, the program will broadly prepare graduates in five primary areas:

Biostatistics – Collection, storage, retrieval, analysis and interpretation of health data; design and analysis of health-related surveys and experiments; and concepts and practice of statistical data analysis;

Epidemiology – Distributions and determinants of disease, disabilities, and death in human populations; the characteristics and dynamics of human populations; and the natural history of disease and the biologic basis of health;

Environmental health sciences – Environmental factors including biological, physical, and chemical factors that affect the health of a community;

Health systems organization – Planning, organization, administration, management, evaluation, and policy analysis of health and public health programs; and
