PHED 6050 DrPH Professional and Academic Development

The DrPH Professional and Academic Development course provides students with opportunities to integrate theory, research, and practice. This required co-curricular experience assists DrPH students in developing competencies that strengthen their potential for advanced leadership in public health practice. These co-curricular activities are also designed to prepare the student for the DrPH Residency (PHED 6397 ). Competency-based learning activities on the DrPH Portfolio focus heavily on three learning outcomes that form the foundation of integrated public health practice: (1) critical analysis of research literature, (2) translation of research findings for diverse audiences, and (3) effective oral and written communication.
