PhD in Public Health with a Concentration in Epidemiology

PhD in Epidemiology

Epidemiology is a fundamental science of public health, defined as the study of the distribution and determinants of disease and disability in populations. Although epidemiology is historically rooted in the study of the causes of infectious diseases (epidemics), epidemiology now addresses a wide array of conditions that affect the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities.

Our PhD program is designed to impart the knowledge, skills, and professionalism needed to become independent researchers, educators, and leaders in public health. Our graduates are prepared for impactful careers in academia, research institutions, government agencies, and industry.
