Engage and collaborate with our local and global communities in addressing public health challenges as a socially responsible leader.

Open to those with a bachelor’s degree in any field, the Master of Public Health (MPH) degree at St. °µÍø½ûÇø develops transformational leaders compelled to advance the well-being of all people. Grounded in a global perspective and social justice lens, this program is for students who are interested in reducing health disparities and addressing disease prevention locally and globally.

NEW FOR FALL 2025

Beginning in Fall 2025, we will offer a fully online option of HyFlex courses to provide greater flexibility and options as you move through the program. Experience the same high-quality education, personalized support, and career-focused guidance from our expert faculty with the flexibility of online learning. 

Our MPH program is built to be flexible. Some students are looking for a face-to-face on-campus experience, with the flexibility to attend some courses online. Others might be looking for a fully online option to earn their graduate degree. The option of HyFlex or hybrid courses on a class-by-class basis allows you to make our program work for you.

You will have opportunities to engage with local, regional, and international organizations to gain new skills, work in real-world settings, and meet public health leaders. Through coursework and a practicum experience, you will learn to:

• Investigate and analyze the historical roots of structural racism and colonialism and their enduring effects on health disparities
• Develop skills necessary to dismantle injustice and advance a social justice agenda in global health careers
• Identify the ways in which policies may reduce or increase social and health inequities
• Propose sustainable and evidence-based multi-sectoral interventions, considering social determinants of health specific to a local area
• Analyze relationships and resources of entities influencing global health
• Develop communication strategies for different audiences and sectors
• Apply negotiation/mediation skills to address organizational and community challenges

With robust global partnerships, we provide online and in-person international experiences for all students. These transformative experiences allow you to develop a different lens through which to view health systems and health promotion interventions and, therefore, enhance your ability to work in culturally diverse settings, both locally and internationally. For example, our graduates work as researchers, health policy analysts, environmental health advocates, refugee health program managers, and more.

This program is open to students of all genders.
