What will I learn?

Recognizing the inherent synergy between medicine and public health, and the growing interest among medical students to earn a Master of Public Health (MPH) concurrently with the Doctor of Medicine (MD), CGU has partnered with California University of Science and Medicine to offer this unique dual enrolment program.

CGU’s School of Community and Global Health and the School of Medicine at California University of Science and Medicine offers the MD/MPH dual enrolment program at CGU for CUSM students who wish to acquire a deeper understanding of the history, organization, philosophy, and theories that undergird public health practice and research. The MPH degree also provides an enhanced appreciation for the myriad social determinants of health, the importance of community-based health promotion interventions and program planning, as well as the complexities of health services delivery.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

Offered specifically for MD students at CUSM to be completed in four years with both degrees conferred simultaneously upon satisfactory completion of all programmatic requirements. The application process has been streamlined and takes minimal time to complete due to coordination and sharing of documents between CGU and CUSM.

Uniquely equips you to impactfully improve the health and well-being of populations and communities.
