Public Health (MPH)

At Johnson & Wales University, combine your passion for health, leadership, and advocacy with our Master of Public Health (MPH) degree — a comprehensive program focused on preparing future leaders through experiential, hands-on learning.

Starting in the first course, students participate in real-world problem-solving. The program culminates in two courses, Improving Community Health and the Public Health Capstone, where you work with community partners to apply public health skills to contemporary challenges.

The MPH program is committed to offering an exceptional student experience. Our hybrid MPH degree offers one year, full-time and part-time options to maximize work-life balance, evening classes to accommodate work schedules, in-person classes for stronger collaborative learning, and online courses for additional schedule flexibility.

Public health relies on skills from numerous disciplines, and the MPH program welcomes students from all backgrounds to apply. Whether your bachelor’s degree is in public health, health science, hospitality, business, culinary, biology, psychology, engineering, design or any other area of study, you can build your future in public health with JWU.
