The College of Veterinary Medicine together with the School of Public Health at The Ohio State University offer the country's only Master of Public Health, Veterinary Public Health degree. With the realization that nearly 60 percent of emerging diseases are likely to be zoonotic (moving from an animal population to humans), the MPH-VPH specialization was developed to prepare public health professionals to better protect the communities they serve. In addition to specialized instruction in the epidemiology of zoonotic diseases, students in the program receive training in food safety, biosecurity, and environmental health.
Applications are currently being accepted for the autumn quarter 2009 class. The deadline for completed applications is May 30th. For more information about the program or the application process, visit the Veterinary Public Health Program web site or contact the VPH Coordinator, Dr. Armando E. Hoet, with our online e-mail form.
