Master of Public Health (MPH):

Generalist Track

Graduates from the MPH Generalist program will have general competency in the evaluation of status of health of diverse populations and in the development of rigorous plans and strategies to implement them to fulfill the primary objective of DPHS, namely to improve population health in and around the Lowcountry and across the state and globe. This program will strive to educate a diverse public health workforce, including working adults and students who may have difficulty with the logistics of attending a graduate degree program taught with in-person requirements, to be experts in innovative research, leadership and serve as advocates for improved and equitable population and community health across South Carolina and beyond. These goals align with MUSC's missions in disease prevention, patient and community wellness, and population health. The program will provide graduates marketable skills for careers in public health agencies, health departments, hospitals and other health care organizations, government regulatory agencies, not-for profit agencies, academic institutions, and industry.
