The Combined Degree Program

The Combined Degree Program is a path for continuous study from the bachelor’s degree through a master’s level professional degree at the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. 

Students in the Combined Degree Program take graduate courses during their senior year, which are applied to both the bachelor’s degree and master’s degree requirements. Students complete all undergraduate requirements and graduate with a bachelor’s degree, then move onto full-time enrollment in an MPH, MPH&TM, MSPH, or MHA program.
