Leverage public health disciplines to improve community health
With health systems becoming more complex, there's a growing need for resilient professionals who understand both public health and business. These experts are in high demand to create programs that improve public health outcomes.
In our MBA x and MS x Public Health concentration, offered through a unique partnership with faculty in the Bouvé College of Health Sciences, you'll build a strong foundation in the social determinants of public health. Through courses taught by Bouvé faculty, you'll explore how social, economic, cultural, political, behavioral, and environmental factors impact the health and wellness of communities and populations.
