The Master of Public Health (MPH) concentrations of Public Health Nutrition and Veterinary Public Health offered through the College of Agriculture and Applied Sciences (CAAS) are very unique to the region. These programs offer a specific combination of education and applied practice that are tailored to students interested in nutrition and veterinary public health. CAAS MPH students have primarily been practicing dietitians, veterinarians, and other public health professionals who are pursuing continued education to advance their career opportunities. The degrees have increased acceptance rates for students applying to professional schools such as veterinary or medical school. CAAS MPH concentrations are available completely online to accommodate students who have other professional and personal responsibilities. Select courses can be taken face-to-face for students who live in the area and prefer the traditional classroom experience.
