The Brown MPH has a singular purpose: to train leaders in public health who are armed with the skills to conduct research, bring about policy change, and positively affect the health of populations. The in-person program includes an internship, a thesis, and the option of customizing your MPH with one of several concentrations. The generalist concentration is delivered fully online and includes an internship and capstone project.
