Master of Public Health (MPH)

The Master of Public Health (MPH) program is a master’s degree program intended to provide academically qualified individuals who are dedicated to enhancing the health status and quality of life all global communities, the basic competent knowledge and creative and critical-thinking ability to improve public health.

The MPH program is organized around six core disciplines of public health: Public Health Ethics, Health Policy and Management, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Environmental Health Science, Biostatistics, and Epidemiology. Knowledge and skills in these disciplines equip the graduate to analyze and consider solutions to public health problems at the community, institutional, and societal levels. The course has a discipline-specific competency emphasis on healthcare management, consistent with the interdisciplinary and cross-cutting competencies of the Association of Schools of Public Health (ASPH) model.
