Public Health/Business Administration, MPH/MBA

Elevate your career in healthcare management while driving innovation at the intersection of public health and business.

The Master of Public Health and Master of Business Administration (MPH/MBA) dual-degree program provides you with the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of public health principles, management strategies and innovative business practices, allowing you to stand out and thrive in a wide range of professional environments. 

As workplaces and economies continue to evolve with technology and world events, flexibility and adaptability have become valuable currency in all sectors of business. The MPH/MBA program allows you to earn two complementary degrees in a shorter time while opening career opportunities in management as well as mobility between industries.

Program Highlights

Comprising 57 total credit hours, the dual-degree curriculum includes all the core requirements for both an MPH and MBA accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) and the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). 

Requirements for the MPH serve as elective credits for the MBA and vice versa. The result is a streamlined program that allows you to earn both degrees over a projected three years — about a year less than the two degrees would require if completed separately — at a significantly lower cost.
