Master of Public Health

You are ready to battle disease, promote better nutrition and hygiene, and improve water quality. You want everyone to have access to preventative healthcare. You are ready to make a difference. The Master of Public Health (MPH) prepares students to work locally and globally to make people healthier and make the world a better place to live!

Our MPH meets the needs of both the full-time student preparing for a career in public health, as well as currently employed health professionals seeking advanced education to enhance their existing skills and background.

With more than 27,000 students, approximately 140 different degree programs, and three campuses with a single vision of growing others, Georgia Southern University is already moving and ready for more. The historic brick streets or moss-dripping oak trees may make our picturesque campuses seem pristine, but there’s a lot of roll-up-your-sleeves work going on here. Research is focused on community impact. Teaching is focused on the students. And the students are focused on their future.

Since 1906, the University’s hallmark has been a culture of engagement that bridges theory with practice, extends the learning environment beyond the classroom, and promotes student growth and life success. Central to the University’s mission is the faculty’s dedication to excellence in teaching and the development of a fertile learning environment exemplified by a free exchange of ideas, high academic expectations, and individual responsibility for academic achievement. Faculty, staff, and students embrace core values of collaboration, academic excellence, discovery and innovation, integrity, openness and inclusion, and sustainability.
