The Master of Public Health is a professional master's degree awarded for studies in areas related to public health. The Council on Education for Public Health has accredited 37 schools of public health in the U.S. through a formal review process, however, many other schools have MPH programs.
The MPH is usually a one or two year program, with many students already possessing an advanced degree. The degree is designed to educate students on five core public health areas: health services administration, biostatistics, epidemiology, behavioral sciences/health education, and environmental health sciences.
