The rapidly growing discipline of Public Health focuses on safeguarding and enhancing community and population health. Nutrition plays a vital role across various public health efforts, from wellness promotion and ecological conservation to illness prevention. The Public Health Program and Nutrition Graduate Program collaboratively present this dual-degree option for aspiring professionals seeking leadership positions where nutritional expertise proves valuable and applicable. This MPH/MS Nutrition combined curriculum features 12-15 shared credit hours, decreasing the total required credits to 75-78 (varies by MPH specialization). Participants choose an MPH focus area among Health Analytics, Health Policy and Management, or Community Health. Both degrees are awarded upon successful completion of the full program.
