The Master of Public Health (MPH) is an interdisciplinary professional degree focused on public health. This program equips students with comprehensive knowledge and fundamental skills across core public health disciplines. Learners can develop expertise in specialized fields through advanced courses while applying their knowledge to real-world health challenges during internship placements. Full-time students typically complete the program in two years, while part-time students have up to six years to finish. The MPH curriculum and learning activities are shaped by established competencies, which also inform prospective students, employers, and stakeholders about graduates' knowledge and capabilities from the MEZCOPH MPH program.
The Global Health MPH specialization is administered by the Department of Health Promotion Sciences. GH concentration students complete coursework covering international nutrition, maternal-child health, global health policies, and epidemiology in worldwide contexts. With faculty guidance, each student creates a personalized study plan and selects electives matching their professional interests.
This GH program welcomes applications from diverse healthcare professionals such as nurses, nutritionists, social workers, and physicians, as well as social science graduates with relevant public health experience outside global health.
