MPH Course Listing and Descriptions

Select a title below for a complete course description, including course information for current students such as textbook requirements.  Textbook information is also listed on the University Bookstore's website and on our main Courses and Schedules page.

You may also download a PDF of all the MPH course descriptions.

Please note that PHPM course prefixes for our biostatistics courses will be phasing out and by Fall 2011, all biostatistics courses will use a BSTA prefix.  Some of our courses have already phased out the PHPM prefix.  Epi-Bio MPH students should review the Biostatistics Certificate course listings because those courses are also open to MPH students in our track.
