Located in the heart of Brooklyn, NY our Downstate Health Sciences University has a rich legacy of excellence in education, research, and community service. Our accredited School of Public Health stands at the forefront of public health education, with a focus on urban and immigrant populations.
Our mission to promote health and prevent disease in the population moves beyond preventive services provided to individual patients in clinical settings by adopting a population-based perspective on pressing health issues, through health education campaigns, screening and prevention programs, epidemiologic analysis of health problems, and consideration of the implications of health policies.

The 42-credit MPH is currently offered as a part-time or full-time program. All students have opportunities to integrate theory with the practice of public health.
