The Milken Institute School of Public Health (Milken SPH) coordinates dual degree programs that include most bachelor of arts (BA) or bachelor of science (BS) majors in Milken SPH, GW School of Business, Columbian College of Arts and Sciences, Elliott School of International Affairs, and School of Engineering and Applied Science with the master of public health (MPH) in the field of environmental and occupational health. The 12 credits earned in the MPH courses listed below may be shared between the two degrees, thereby decreasing the number of credits normally required for the MPH. All requirements for both degrees, as well as those for any minor program in which the student also is enrolled, must be fulfilled.
