Drexel University's Dornsife School of Public Health offers an MPH dual graduate degree program in partnership with the Drexel College of Medicine.

Joint MPH degree programs allow highly motivated students to study public health in a deeply integrated manner while earning two degrees in less time with less cost than it would take to complete each program on its own.

Applicants seeking admission to dual-degree studies must meet the admission criteria at both schools. Prospective students may apply for the dual program before they begin school or during their first year of the program.

Dornsife's combined bachelor's and master's degree programs are listed separately on the Accelerated Degree Programs (4+1) page.

Doctor of Medicine and Master of Public Health (MD/MPH)

The MD/MPH dual degree program trains students to be physicians who understand population health issues from both local and global perspectives.

The program, which is built on a foundation of health and human rights, provides interdisciplinary training in clinical medicine and population health sciences.

MD/MPH students generally complete both degrees in five years.
