A Note to Our Students
The national accrediting body for public
health programs, the Council on Education
for Public Health (CEPH), regularly conducts
reviews of public health programs that
seek accreditation. As a result of the
CEPH accreditation conducted in 2006, our
public health program was placed on probation
for program staffing related to funding.
While the program remains accredited, CEPH
will revisit UNC in 2008 to determine if
we have addressed the issue. We are
committed to the task, recently joining
forces with the newly formed Colorado School
of Public Health (http://coloradosph.org/),
and remain committed to a robust and fully-accredited
MPH program.
UNC offers Colorado's only accredited Masters in Public Health Program with an emphasis in Community Health Education. This program aims to prepare students to work with diverse populations and work within communities to prevent disease and develop positive, healthy lifestyles. Because you are preparing to enter a field with great latitude, you will be able to tailor your program to emphasize your special interests in public health as you prepare for your future. In addition, once UNC joins with the Colorado School of Public Health in 2008, you will have the opportunity to diversity your course load even more with classes from other partner universities.
