General Information

The M.P.H. Program is a two-year non-thesis program. It will normally be completed in three academic terms and one term devoted to a practicum.

The M.P.H. program is available in two formats:

  • Traditional classroom-based curriculum: on-campus classes scheduled on a Monday to Friday timetable.
  • Distributed learning format: each course consists of three full days, one day per month. An additional 15 hours of curriculum is online for each course. Full day classes will be scheduled Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Courses will be scheduled so that classes for four separate courses can take place over three extended weekends (Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday) in a term.
