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

non-traditional students while ensuring that all graduates demonstrate the core
