Master of Public Health - Community Health

The Community Health concentration in the Master of Public Health program offered by the College of Behavioral and Health Sciences at MTSU offers preparation for a wide range of roles and settings within the public health arena. These settings include non-governmental and governmental agencies at international, national, state, and local levels. The Master of Public Health degree is a two-year program through the Department of Health and Human Performance. This option offers students an invaluable breadth of public health-related knowledge, training, and skill set needed to optimize career opportunities at the local, state, regional, national, and global levels. The program, via in-built flexibility, accommodates both traditional and non-traditional students while ensuring that all graduates demonstrate the core competencies of public health. Students typically enroll in the program from a variety of backgrounds and may choose the thesis or non-thesis track. However, all students, regardless of track, must complete 6 hours of Applied Practical Experience (APE).
