As the first School of Public Health west of the Mississippi, the UC Berkeley School of Public Health continues to provide leadership in research, teaching, and service. Our training and research focus upon 1) a broad-based ecological perspective on health; 2) an interdisciplinary, campus-wide resource base; 3) an emphasis on rapid cycle application of new and emerging research; and 4) a special sensitivity to multicultural issues informed by the demands of social justice and protection of human rights. This broad-based approach to public health can only be pursued at a place like Berkeley, the premiere public university in the world, where the intellectual resources on campus enable the school to pursue a truly interdisciplinary approach to public health. The school’s broad curriculum provides students with a working understanding of epidemiology, biostatistics, environmental health, health behavior, health policy and management, and the means with which this knowledge may be brought to bear on pressing health problems locally, national, and internationally. We offer an online MPH degree program for working, mid-career professionals, as well as several joint degree and concurrent degree programs including an MBA/MPH with the Haas School of Business, an MPP/MPH with Goldman School of Public Policy, and MSW/MPH with the School of Social Welfare, an MCP/MPH with the College of City and Regional Planning, and an MJ/MPH with the Graduate School of Journalism.
