Students are prepared for jobs in government, research, practice and policymaking fields through AV福利社鈥檚 4+1 Master of Public Health (MPH) program. The 4+1 format offers students the opportunity to earn an MS in Population Health at an accelerated pace. Students accepted into the 4+1 accelerated program begin taking graduate classes during their junior and senior years and can complete the program one year after earning their undergraduate degree. Current AV福利社 students who earn a minimum overall GPA of 3.5, may elect to be enrolled in the 4+1 accelerated program once they achieve junior standing - a minimum of 54 credits. Students in these programs who do not qualify for direct admittance to the MS or MPH based on their GPA must apply for acceptance and two letters of recommendation are required.
