Answer

Up to 12 units of previous graduate coursework may be approved for transfer credit as long as they were not counted towards a previous degree. These units must come from a CEPH accredited public health program. However, credit is only available for equivalent courses, as demonstrated by the course syllabus, content, and assignments. Approval of previous units is done on an individual basis by MPH Faculty Advisors.. Course credit is not given for previous work experience. However, you will be able to draw upon your previous experiences in class discussions, papers, and other assignments.
