The official page of Washington University School of Medicine's Master of Population Health Sciences (MPHS) degree program. The MPHS program is led by Dr. Graham Colditz.
The Master of Population Health Sciences (MPHS), offered by the Washington University School of Medicine, is a 10-month, full-time degree program for clinicians, clinical doctorates and medical students seeking training in clinical and population health research methods. Part-time study is also available.
The quantitative curriculum emphasizes the role of epidemiology and biostatistics in approaching clinical effectiveness and outcomes research. The MPHS does not require a research thesis/capstone. Instead, the program uses applied coursework to focus on the long-term application of skills. Using topics relevant to their careers and interests, the applied coursework allows MPHS students to practice the art of developing research study protocols, performing systematic reviews, designing epidemiologic studies and much more.
MPHS students deepen their learning by choosing one of three concentrations: Clinical Epidemiology, Health Services, or Psychiatric and Behavioral Health Sciences.
