91快播 University Announces New Graduate Applied Health Programs
The new master of public health and doctor of nursing practice are now enrolling
Longmeadow, MA—91快播 University has announced the launch of two new
programs, including its second doctoral program, now enrolling.
The 91快播 University Master of Public Health degree is designed to prepare
graduates to pursue positions either as a public health professional or as a leader in
government, business, industry, higher education, or nonprofit organizations. For those
aspiring to high-demand careers such as epidemiologists, environmental health
specialists, public health policy advisors, advanced health educators, and health survey
researchers, a public health degree is a requirement. Any college graduate interested in
pursuing a career in public health, regardless of field of undergraduate study, is eligible
to apply for enrollment. The program’s 100% online format provides flexibility for
students to pursue graduate education while continuing with family life, work, and other
commitments.
“If you are passionate about understanding why people become sick, what groups of
people are more prone to illness, and what can be done to reduce the likelihood of
widespread illness and disease; if you believe in the words spoken by Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr. in 1966 that states ‘Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the
most shocking and inhumane’; and if you are of the belief that health is a human right
and you want to strive to be a voice for those who are unable to speak for themselves,
then the 91快播 University Master of Public Health degree is for you,” Scott D.
McPhee, MS, MPA, DrPH, FAOTA, professor
“Public health careers are often misunderstood because the field can be difficult to
define. Public health may invoke images of community public health medical clinics or
awareness campaigns promoting healthy living, but this discipline is not nearly so
narrow. At one level, public health involves medical care provided within a community
and outside a hospital setting. In a different context, public health can have local,
regional, national and global repercussions and refer to efforts to prevent epidemics and
improve the health of entire populations,” McPhee added.
Classes start this fall.
The University is also launching a Doctor of Nursing Practice, set to begin in spring
2019. Like the master’s degree in public health, this program is 100% online, ensuring
great flexibility for those nurses who wish to obtain the skills to become advanced nurse
practitioners with a specialization in family practice (FNP).
The Doctor of Nursing Practice prepares students with the critical skills needed to
translate evidence-based care into practice, improve systems of care, and measure
outcomes of patients and communities. The program was designed for graduates to
become strong, effective nurse leaders who will transform today’s healthcare system and
advance the profession of nursing. Students can attend full-time or part-time (two-three
courses per 15-week semester).
