Concentration: Behavioral Health (Code: PBH)
Delivery: Traditional
The MSPH in Behavioral Health prepares students for careers oriented toward research, evaluation, translational research, implementation sciences, and investigating co-occurring mental and physical disorders as well as research in co-occurring mental and substance use disorders. Graduates are prepared for employment in academic, clinical and other research in health and behavioral health. Each area of specialization and the corresponding program of study is developed on an individual basis, guided by the student's interests and areas of expertise. A supervisory committee of three faculty members assists the student in planning appropriate coursework and directing the thesis. This program of study may be especially relevant to students whose future plans include a doctoral degree.
