Our program is an accelerated, 11-month program designed to meet the needs of mature scholars with diverse cultural and professional backgrounds who have specific public health career goals in mind. The program focuses on an interdisciplinary understanding of complex issues and the leadership challenges of successful interventions in public health. Graduates leave as well-rounded public health professionals with a heightened understanding of the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to public health practice.
Faculty: School of Public Health | Department: School of Public Health | Duration: 1 year | Study mode: full-time | Location: Berkeley, CA, United States
Curriculum This program runs from July to May. Students take a heavy course load (17–19 units per semester), in addition to one to three summer courses (1–9 units) to satisfy the 42-unit requirement. The program’s curricular flexibility allows students, in consultation with their faculty advisers, to develop an individualized course of study tailored to meet their career objectives.
Graduates enter career areas including Government, Health & Medicine, Law & Public Policy, Science & Research.
Only those who are enrolled in a graduate program at the time of application or hold a graduate degree (master’s or equivalent) by the start of the program are eligible to apply. Successful applicants are professionals with a demonstrated ability to work both independently and within a team-based structure. While many successful applicants are already health professionals, applicants from disciplines not traditionally associated with public health are also encouraged to apply. The program is also appropriate for dual-degree students completing an MPH in conjunction with an MD, DDS or other graduate degree. Medical students from Stanford University and UCSF should consult their dual degree liaisons for details on our inter-campus collaboration.
