The School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences and the Department of Health Sciences offer a combined Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) and Master of Public Health (MPH) program.
The combined PharmD/MPH program recognizes and reinforces the importance of public health in pharmacy practice. Central to addressing public health concerns, and in particular those associated with racial and ethnic health disparities, the program is committed to building a strong, diverse, and activist public health workforce. The goal of the program is to graduate professionals who are well educated in the complex issues associated with disparate health status and healthcare access. The combined PharmD/MPH program allows qualified and interested students an opportunity to achieve their goal of obtaining a more robust understanding of public health through an MPH degree while also completing their PharmD.
