 Other Requirements

In addition to the University's minimum requirements and those listed above, all applicants are expected to submit the departmental application through the Schools of Public Health Application Service (SOPHAS] and a statement of purpose.

Health and allied professionals who are unable to pursue a degree program during their regular working hours may earn the MPH degree by completing coursework in intensive summer sessions and in extended weekend sessions during the academic year. Courses are taught by the faculty of the School of Public Health, and currently two departments offer a specialization in their area: Community Health Sciences offers a concentration in health education/promotion and Health Services offers a concentration in health care management.

Applicants are expected to fulfill the minimum overall requirements for admission to the MPH program. In addition, they must have at least three years of professional experience or the full-time equivalent in a health care setting.
