To provide professional education that prepares both students and graduates with knowledge, conceptual frameworks, health education and public health competencies, in order to develop programs, build community capacity, and advocate policy for health equity.
The MPH program's mission is achieved through an integrated program of instruction, scholarship, and internships in partnership with a diverse network of community programs and practitioners.
