The MPH program is flexible and can be customized to meet a variety of professional and career goals. Students may study on a full-time basis, or on a part-time/Internet-based basis. Full-time and Part-time/Internet-based students have the same academic requirements and receive the same the degree. The full-time option is a concentrated eleven-month course of study at the East Baltimore campus that begins each year in July. The program attracts students from all over the world to our campus in Baltimore, Maryland. The courses are structured to provide the core MPH requirements early in the academic program, followed by advanced and elective coursework in the later part of the academic year. Most courses are offered in a face-to-face format during daytime hours, but students may supplement their schedules through participation in off-campus and online course offerings.
Part-time/Internet-based students complete the MPH degree within three years of matriculation. The program begins semi-annually in January and June with orientation and introductory coursework. Students can earn up to 80% of their academic credits online, with the remaining 20% being earned in a face-to-face format. Earning face-to-face credits is flexible and can be accomplished in a variety of ways. Students may earn face-to-face credits through a combination of in-person classes taken either on the East Baltimore or Montgomery County campuses during regular academic terms or intensive learning summer and winter institutes, or at other sites where Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health courses are offered for credit.
