Overview

At Public Health program at University of Texas El Paso students take core courses designed to develop knowledge, analytical and technical skills in five fundamental public health competencies: social and behavioral sciences, health services administration and policy, epidemiology, environmental health and biostatistics. The required practicum provides students with an opportunity to apply the public health theory and skills they have learned in a practice setting.

The culminating project for the MPH Program at UTEP consists of a thesis or graduate research project. Our innovative Hispanic and Border Health concentration prepares students for public health practice in Hispanic and border communities.
