Health Policy and Management, JD/MPH

Once admitted, the student completes the first year of law school before registering for courses in public health. During subsequent semesters students are encouraged to integrate coursework between the schools to best accommodate the students learning objectives.

Add electives as recommended by academic advisors to earn total credits required for the program. Students can apply a maximum of 3 credits of public health-relevant coursework taken in LAW to meet joint degree requirements.
