Graduate Program on Public Health and Humanitarian Assistance

The Program on Forced Migration and Health offers a Master in Public Health (MPH) degree through Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health with a required Certificate in Public Health and Humanitarian Assistance (PHHA). This two-year course of study offers 13 courses designed specifically for humanitarian workers, taught by experts who have spent years in the field responding to emergencies. Students also complete a 2-month skills-based practicum in a humanitarian setting.

Our classes provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary for research, implementation, and evaluation of humanitarian programming. Students will learn to improve the delivery of food and nutrition, water and sanitation, reproductive health, child protection and survival, control of communicable diseases, mental health, and human rights monitoring and programming during complex emergencies. Join us, and lead the response.
