Master of Science in Nutrition/Master of Public Health

The burgeoning field of Public Health is concerned with protecting and improving the health and well-being of communities and populations. Nutrition is a critical and common factor in many public health initiatives whether the focus is on health promotion, environmental sustainability or disease prevention. The Program in Public Health and the Graduate Program in Nutrition are pleased to offer this combined educational opportunity for individuals who are interested in leadership roles in which knowledge of nutrition is both marketable and practical. The MPHMS Nutrition program includes 12-15 credits of overlap, which reduces the total number of credits in the combined program to 75-78 (depending on the MPH concentration). Students select an MPH concentration in Health Analytics, Health Policy and Management, or Community Health. Students receive both degrees upon completion of the entire program.
