About Our Students

We typically admit between 15-20 students to our MPH program and 1-2 doctoral students each year.  So, there are 35-50 community health education graduate students around at any given time, in a school that has about 200 graduate students.  The vast majority of our students are enrolled in the MPH program.  In general, they are in their late-20s or early-30s with several years of experience in the field of public health.  Most of our students are from the New England area, although we accept students from all over the country and we have a large number of international students.
