Dual Degree Programs (SPH)

The School of Public Health (SPH) offers three dual degree programs: Master of Public Health (MPH)/ Master of Science (MS) in Applied Anthropology through the SPH and the University of North Texas Department of Anthropology; MPH/MS in Geography through the SPH and the University of North Texas Department of Geography; and the MPH/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 and must meet all requirements for each degree separately. Admission to one program does not assure 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 SPH 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.
