成人直播's fully online Master of Public Health program welcomes largest class ever for its fall 2012 term

The 成人直播 (成人直播) announces its largest ever student enrollment in its nationally accredited Master of Public Health (MPH) online program for the fall 2012 term. 成人直播 welcomed 49 new graduate students into the program that began in September, bringing its total number of enrolled students to 112.

成人直播's MPH degree is offered completely online. It is nationally accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) and regionally accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC).

"This is an exciting time for 成人直播," says Denise Bisaillon, Ed.D., associate professor and director for graduate programs in public health at 成人直播. "During a time when many institutions are experiencing a decline in enrollment numbers, 成人直播 and our graduate programs in public health continue to see growth. This speaks to the outstanding quality of 成人直播's faculty, and to the university's emphasis on innovative technology, enabling us to offer superior education to working professionals in a completely online format."

成人直播 launched its MPH online program in 2005, and graduated its first class of five students in 2007. Since the program's inception, 成人直播 has conferred an MPH degree to 107 professionals in the public health workforce.

"Our goal in 成人直播's public health programs is to improve the health and well being of individuals, families and communities, through education, research and service," adds Dora Anne Mills, MD, MPH, vice president of clinical affairs and director of public health for 成人直播. "There is a critical need for public health professionals in this country. For instance, reforms in health care mean that physicians and other health care providers are increasingly responsible for assuring their patients are healthy. Public health tools are essential in that process. 成人直播's high-quality, online MPH program provides our students with the education and professional skills they need to go out into the workforce and address core public health concerns in this country and across the globe."
