The PhD program provides advanced training in the application of research methods to understand and enhance public mental health.

The 5-year PhD program allows students to focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive infectious and immune diseases, the opportunity to take courses focused on a specific research area, and to benefit from lab rotations, mentored research, and professional development.

Training is offered through a core methodologic sequence with the addition of more focused courses in specialized areas. Most training areas of concentration require specific courses. Students are expected to tailor their curricula, working with their advisers to create a comprehensive plan of study and research.

Students pursuing a PhD in Environmental Health at Johns Hopkins can focus their research in areas including exposure science and environmental epidemiology, sustainability, health security, and toxicology.

The Global Disease Epidemiology and Control PhD program prepares students to be leaders in global health using epidemiological, immunological, laboratorial, and statistical methods.

The MHS in Mental Health is a nine-month degree program that provides a foundation in the research methods and content-area knowledge essential to public mental health.

The 9-month MHS program includes a core curriculum focused on the biology, immunology, and transmission dynamics of major infectious diseases related to public health.

The MHS is designed for students who want to gain quantitative skills to participate in research or the translation of research into practice.

The MPH program focuses on current global health problems and uses multidisciplinary, evidence-based approaches to prepare students to become leaders in the public health field.

The ScM is designed for students who want to gain advanced quantitative skills to conduct research combined with a mentored experience in applying these skills in a thesis project.

The 2-year ScM program gives students an understanding of infectious diseases guided by research experience in the laboratory or field.

The Global Disease Epidemiology and Control MSPH program trains students to use epidemiologic and biostatistical methods to design, implement, and evaluate disease control interventions.
