Accelerated (Fully On-Campus) MPH Option 

Students looking to complete the program in a single calendar year may wish to take the accelerated option, which is fully on-campus. Students enroll in courses starting the first session of summer semester and finish in the first half of the following summer (June-May). 

We currently offer two concentrations in the accelerated option:  

• Epidemiology and Biostatistics 
• Health Services Management and Policy 

The accelerated option is fast-paced, and the course load is heavy. Seats are guaranteed in pre-selected sections of all required courses to facilitate timely completion of the degree. 

Students can pursue additional interests by choosing from electives to advance your unique career goals. 

Experience the freedom to pursue your advanced degree while managing work, family, and other commitments. Benefits of the online MPH include:

• Flexibility: Access the asynchronous coursework from anywhere, at any time, allowing you to adapt your studies to your schedule.
• Interactive Learning: Engage with expert faculty and collaborate with peers through weekly live sessions via virtual platforms, promoting engaging discussions and networking opportunities.
• Self-Paced: Tailor your learning pace to suit your preferences and commitments, ensuring you achieve your academic goals without added stress.
