THE UNC CHARLOTTE MPH PROGRAM

According to the Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health (ASPPH), a Master of Public Health (MPH) is a practice-oriented, interdisciplinary professional degree that prepares individuals to make a positive impact on the health and wellness of people in your community to people across the globe.

The UNC Charlotte Master of Public Health (MPH) program is an in-person plan of study that prepares students to apply core principles of evidence-based, public health practice within a variety of professional settings; our graduates are competent members of the public health workforce. Our MPH curriculum is based on the collective needs, expectations, and requirements of regional and national public health partners, employers, and accreditation bodies.

Students develop specialized skills in one of four concentrations:

• Community Health Practice (CHPR)
• Epidemiology (EPID)
• Health Policy (HPOL)
• Physical Activity & Nutrition (PANU)

The program prepares students to provide leadership in a variety of settings, including health-related agencies and organizations, hospitals, local and state public health departments, academic research centers and institutes, corporate disease management and wellness programs, non-profit agencies, and healthcare businesses and industries.

NOTE: UNC Charlotte’s MPH Program is NOT STEM-designated.
