Applied Practice Experience for Health Management (MPH45)

HPM 946F Subject & Catalog Number

Description

All students completing a Master of Public Health degree must complete an Applied Practice Experience (“Practicum”) and an Integrative Learning Experience (ILE). This required course is designed to meet both these degree requirements. In the course, students will identify and complete a practicum that will be of value to their professional development and career goals. Students will also share their practicum experience with their MPH colleagues via a “peer-to-peer” joint learning experience. A final required health management case study will require students to demonstrate the ability to integrate and synthesize selected program competencies. Class sessions will focus on developing tools and insights that will be useful in future professional practice in health management and public health. 

This is a year-long course worth a total of 2.5 credits (1.25 in the fall and 1.25 in the spring).

Course Requirements: Course restricted to MPH-45 HM students. This is a required course.
