In all classes, whether required or elected, the emphasis is on the relevancy of information and skills to public health practice in local or global community settings. The most noted courses are the Field Study and a self-designed Capstone Project covered in the student's last term. These courses allow students to integrate what they have learned into a “real-world” public health practice in a community-based setting amoung needy local and international communities. The program will also train students to effectively undertake applied studies into the integrated causes of poor health among disadvantaged families and communities. This will entail increasing their abilities to ask relevant public health questions and identify priority determinants affecting prevailing public health conditions. It will also comprise strengthening their abilities to identify the link between the health disparities and critically analyze the cause and effect and explore possible remedies. As a preliminary step to this process, trainees will be guided to conduct their studies among poor and disenfranchised communities at home or abroad.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: None Required Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time:   # of Students Enrolled Part Time:   Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit:   Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:   Average Work Experience:   Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black:   Religious Affiliation:
