Public Health program
Promote and protect the health of people and communities
Public health professionals are needed now more than ever
Oregon State’s public health program addresses health across the lifespan, including health disparities and health equity.
Public health professionals promote and protect the health of people and communities – where they live, learn, work and play.
With a degree in public health, you will have the opportunity to work locally, nationally and internationally on critical health issues.
Online MPH Program
Our Online MPH - Public Health Practice program provides interdisciplinary training in public health practice. The program can be completed full time or part time and is delivered through Oregon State Ecampus, which is widely considered one of America's best providers of online education.
You can apply using the same process as on-campus MPH students. See how to apply for more information about the application process and application deadlines.
