PMO 675 Doctoral Student Practicum in Public Health

Enrolled students will have the opportunity for a variety of training experiences in public health within military and civilian organizations in the local geographic area and possibly more distant sites. Students will enhance their didactic learning with practical application and will acquire a broad public health perspective including experiences with advocacy, communication, community-oriented cultural orientation, critical analysis, leadership, management and/or professionalism and ethics. DrPH students will receive 6 credits for 240 hours and the completion of a final report and requisite evaluation forms documenting the practicum experience. The practicum may be spread over more than one quarter, but the total number of hours is not to exceed 6 over the duration of the degree program.
