Other MPH Options

One of the most common difficulties facing public health today is the lack of advanced educational opportunities for professionals. Many practitioners who have specialized knowledge in their fields would benefit from a greater understanding of the principles of population health and the technical skills that are the foundation of public health practice. The Professional Option-Practice concentration is designed for public health, health care and social service professionals who are seeking to learn more about the overall field of public health and to enhance their administrative and leadership abilities.
