About MPH Students

Students in the MPH program are mature, independent learners. They are self-starters, highly motivated, and proficient at time management.

They can both share knowledge and experience and request assistance from faculty and student colleagues.

Our students are:

  • Diverse in terms of academic and professional backgrounds
