MPH Curriculum
In order to maintain satisfactory academic progress toward the degree, a student in the MPH program is expected to complete a minimum of six (6) semester credits each academic year, beginning with the first semester of enrollment. For satisfactory academic progress, the six (6) semester credits may consist of prerequisite courses or program courses. Failure to comply with the six (6) credit minimum each academic year may result in the student being removed from the degree program. See the beginning of this chapter for additional requirements to remain in good standing, and to maintain satisfactory academic progress toward the degree.
