Students start in July and take classes four to five days per week, often with Dartmouth?s MPH students. The academic year is divided into four, 10-week terms culminating with graduation the following June. The first half of the year covers core coursework such as research methods and critical issues in the health care system. In the second half of the year, students shape their interests through electives and work to address health care challenges locally and nationally through capstone projects.?
