Dual Degree Programs
Multi-disciplined Graduate Experience
As part of TTUHSC, the Julia Jones Matthews School of Population and Public Health puts the extraordinary resources of a health-centered institution at your fingertips. The School fosters a multidisciplinary approach to public health through dual degree programs offered in conjunction with other TTUHSC and TTU programs.
Applicants seeking admission to dual degree programs must apply separately to each program, and must meet the admissions requirements of both. Students considering dual degree programs may apply to both schools at the same time and are strongly encouraged to apply as early as possible. Once both schools grant admission to the individual degree programs, the student will meet with an advisor to develop an individual path to integration.
The Julia Jones Matthews School of Population and Public Health and the Texas Tech University Department of Political Science offers a Master of Public Health (MPH) and Master of Public Administration (MPA) dual degree program.
With health becoming an increasing priority within the public, private, and nonprofit sectors, students pursuing the MPA/MPH dual degree will acquire the skills needed to address the critical health and healthcare issues facing our world. Our interdisciplinary, 60-hour dual degree program provides the necessary skills for you to pursue professional careers in both public administration and public health while preparing you for leadership roles in community healthcare settings, government agencies, and non-profit organizations around the world or here at home. At completion of this full-time program, you will have earned a Master of Public Administration (MPA) and a Master of Public Health (MPH), positioning you for advanced career options in either field.
