Global health research is central
The capstone project is the centerpiece of the Master of Science program. Students focus on a particular area of interest and apply rigorous scholarship to an active research project in global health, either in the United States or with an international partner, during one quarter of the program.
Admissions reviews are holistic
The master’s program places a high value on the diversity of students who matriculate and reviews all applicants in a holistic manner. GRE scores are not required. Applicants who come from traditionally underrepresented groups and students who have faced hardships are encouraged to apply.
