Curriculum

This 42-credit hour curriculum is notable for its ultimate flexibility. Students complete all of their course work online with the exception of a one-week on-campus session each year for two years. On-campus sessions are typically held in the late summer--a nice vacation! The program's part-time schedule was designed to be completed in two to five years, depending on the pace of study. The curriculum includes the core public health courses, occupational health sciences courses, and occupational health nursing courses. Other degree requirements include a master's paper and a field practicum.
