Information for Prospective Students
Thank you for your interest in the Oregon Master of Public Health Program!
The OMPH Program offers eight specific tracks across the three participating universities. In addition, the OMPH Program also offers a Graduate Certificate in Public Health.
Students select a specific track at one of the partner universities. They apply for admissions, follow the curriculum path for their chosen track, and attend classes primarily at their track location. Prospective students apply directly to the campus that hosts the track in which they are interested. Tuition and fee schedules, financial aid, scholarships, and fellowships are administered by each host campus.
Is the Oregon MPH Program Right for me?
The program is designed for persons with an existing bachelor's or higher degree in a related field, who wish to obtain further formal education in the field of public health. Through the OMPH Program, persons with experience in the health professions will increase their knowledge of population-based health to prepare them for expanded administrative, service, research, and policy careers. Those persons who do not yet have experience in the health field will receive the broad-based education needed to prepare them for a variety of professional health-related careers.
Can the program be completed online?
Yes, the Primary Health Care & Health Disparities Track may be completed entirely online. It is the only online track at this time. However, students admitted to other tracks within the OMPH Program may have access to the five core courses offered online through the PHCHD Track.
