U of M Launches Dual Degree in Vet Medicine & Public Health - Minnesota Ag Connection Editors

The University of Minnesota's College of Veterinary Medicine and School of Public Health launched a new dual Doctor of Veterinary Medicine/Master of Public Health degree program. The MPH curriculum is designed so that students working toward a DVM at any qualified veterinary college nationwide can earn a dual Master of Public Health degree concurrently through the University of Minnesota program. Participating students take public health coursework through online learning programs and during the summers of their veterinary training, including a three-week Summer Public Health Institute. Students also must complete a field experience and a master’s project. The MPH portion of the combined program requires 40 to 42 hours of coursework, with the potential for some veterinary electives to satisfy MPH requirements as well.
