Practice Experience Information & Forms

All M.P.H. students are required to complete a practice experience as part of their degree requirement, and may receive credit for the practice experience depending on their major department’s policy. Practice experiences may be paid or unpaid. Placements are arranged in consultation with the student’s faculty advisor or the School of Public Health and Health Sciences (SPHHS) Office of Public Health Practice and Outreach. The advisor reviews the student’s interests, preferences, financial factors, experience and skills, and is usually able to arrange for interviews with a suitable organization directly or through another faculty member.
