Dual Degree Programs (SPH)


The School of Public Health (SPH) offers six dual degree programs: Master of Public Health (MPH) or Master of Health Administration (MHA)/Master of Physician Assistant Studies (PA) offered through the SPH and the School of Health Professions; MPH/Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) offered through the SPH and the UNT System College of Pharmacy and the MPH or MHA/Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) offered through the SPH and the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine (TCOM). The applicants in these programs are evaluated and admitted separately to each University/School and must meet all requirements for each degree separately. Admission to one program does not ensure admission to the other. Students completing a dual degree program receive separate diplomas and transcripts from each participating University. Thus, they are not joint degree programs where one diploma lists both schools, but rather dual degree programs. See website for admission requirements.

In each of the following programs, students must complete the curriculum plan as defined for the specific dual degree. Additional information about required curriculum is located on the SPH website. With the use of transfer credit and dual credit, students are required to complete 42-48 semester credit hours in Public Health.
