Program Description
The Program in Public Health, coordinated by the Department of Preventive Medicine, offers a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree to students seeking 1) a broad perspective on the definition of health highlighting the concepts of prevention, health promotion, health care organization and delivery, and population-based research and intervention; 2) an interdisciplinary public health knowledge base derived from biomedical and social scientific theories and empiric evidence; and 3) the quantitative, educational, organizational, and practical skills to ensure that all graduates will be successful in future public health practice, teaching, and/or research endeavors.

The combined MD/MPH program is available to first-year medical students in The Feinberg School of Medicine. Students in the combined degree program may earn both the MD and MPH degrees in four years.
