Dartmouth PhD Health Policy.....

Members don't see this ad.

I was thinking about applying to Dartmouth's PhD program in Health Policy. At first I was interested in the MPH but it turns out they offer little or close to no aid, so I decided to opt for the PhD instead. I want to go into Epidemiology.

Is an MPH or MS pretty much all you need to accomplish this? Or can one go on to the PhD?

How is Dartmouth's program viewed in the field? I know its not ranked like the other traditional program but I was curious as to how grads of the program faired in the field. Point is, is it worth attending?

Why do you want a PhD in Health Policy if you want to go into Epi?
As far as getting into a PhD program, every school is different, and some may bend the rules if they think you'll be successful in the program...

You get the MPH along the route to the PhD.
