The Master of Public Health (MPH) in Health Policy Leadership concentration delivers an interprofessional-clinical concentration to train a new generation of population health leaders, drawing expertise from the School of Nursing and Health Professions and the School of Management at USF in the following areas: public health policy; management and leadership; and global health.
Located in California’s state capitol, Sacramento is the ideal setting for students looking to immerse themselves in health policy and leadership. This two year program affords students with a unique and exceptional skill set that bridges macro and micro systems, including proficiency in management skills in the crafting and execution of strategic and business plans, and the development of policies at an organizational, local, state, or national level. Students are able to develop a domestic (U.S.) and global perspective throughout the program.
