Public Health – Executive (MPH)

Designed for working professionals, Drexel Dornsife's Executive Master of Public Health (EMPH) program offers a convenient class schedule in which students can earn their degree in 21 months. Whether working in public health, a related health care setting, or seeking a career change, the Executive MPH program is tailored for individuals who are committed to advancing their careers and acquiring the knowledge and tools to advance to leadership roles in public health. The program is fast-paced, intensive, and demanding, but builds on each individual's former education, work experience, and skills. The Executive MPH program curriculum combines online coursework with on-campus residencies twice per term.

Like other Drexel Dornsife MPH programs, the Executive MPH program covers the major disciplines of public health including community health and prevention, environmental and occupational health, epidemiology and biostatistics, and health management and policy. The EMPH program is designed as a generalist degree. However, students have the opportunity to complete both self-directed elective courses and an integrated learning experience where they can gain practical public health experience during the second year. EMPH students are provided with mentoring and advising opportunities both by full-time School of Public Health faculty and public health practitioners.
