The MPH with a concentration in Epidemiology is an academic degree designed for students who wish to receive education and training to prepare them for a career in the field of epidemiology. In addition, students who wish to enter doctoral-level training should consider majoring in epidemiology at the master's level. The program emphasizes understanding the role of epidemiology within the broader context of the field of public health.

Curriculum

In contrast to the Applied Epidemiology focus of the MSPH, the MPH program does not require the completion of a research project. It does require an internship. The MPH with a concentration in Epidemiology typically takes five semesters or 20 months of full-time coursework to complete. Part-time coursework generally takes students at least six to eight semesters to complete.
