New Program in Public Health at University of California, Irvine

The Program in Public Health at the University of California, Irvine is pleased to offer the Master of Public Health in three concentrations: Environmental Health, Epidemiology, and Sociocultural Diversity and Health. The mission of the UC Irvine MPH program is to create public health practitioners who can effectively reduce the burden of disease and disability in culturally diverse communities in Southern California and around the world. A broad training in the global dimensions of public health principles prepares students to lead and work collaboratively on the assessment of health-risk factors and the management of prevention strategies. The MPH is a professional, interdisciplinary degree designed to give students the skills, knowledge and experience they need to make a difference in the field of public health. The Program in Public Health also plans to offer a PhD in Public Health and establish a dual-degree MD/MPH with the School of Medicine in coming years.
