Accepting Applications for UConn's MPH Program
Public health careers for the 21st century will require competence in interprofessional practice. Interprofessional education refers to the capacity of students to enact knowledge, skills, and attitudes essential for working together across professions and stakeholder groups to improve outcomes. Our programs continue to pursue mechanisms and activities to ensure that our graduates are competent interprofessional public health practitioners.
You can join students, alumni, and faculty working to shape our public health system and services. When thinking about public health around Connecticut, it’s hard to overstate our program’s influence.

Health directors and staff in state and local health departments
