Within four degree programs (three master's and one doctoral), students have opportunities to engage directly with faculty, study internationally, and complete practicums in the field.
Students can choose from eight different tracks to focus their study and research. Additionally, there are several pre- and postdoctoral training programs available.
Our students graduate with marketable skills and real-world experience, ready to make an impact, from the #1 school of public health.
The MHS is designed for students who are new to the field and for those who want to gain the quantitative skills necessary to conduct research.
Many students pursuing the ScM find themselves conducting a "mini doctoral dissertation" in terms of breadth and scope of their research.
Training is offered through a core methodologic sequence with the addition of more focused courses in specialized areas. Most training areas of concentration require specific courses. Students are expected to tailor their curricula, working with their advisers to create a comprehensive plan of study and research.
The Bachelor's/Master of Health Science MHS combined degree program prepares students for further graduate work or prominent careers in research and science. It is an opportunity for undergraduate students at Johns Hopkins University who are majoring in Public Health Studies.
