The Master of Public Health degree program provides advanced study beyond the bachelor degree for persons wishing to update
professional skills and obtain new competencies in the area of public health. The program prepares students to enhance public
health in the community and to become advocates for needed change. The graduates will be prepared to assess factors affecting
health, critique and apply research findings, and, in turn, develop strategies and implement various measures for health promotion
and disease prevention. The program is composed of a consortium that includes BGSU, the Medical College of Ohio (MCO), and
The University of Toledo (UT). The MPH degree is awarded jointly by the three consortial institutions. MPH students have library,
computer, parking, and other privileges at all three institutions.
All applicants to the Master of Public Health program must complete the application process through the UT/MUO web site. Applications for admission to this program cannot be processed through Bowling Green State University.
