PUHE-514 : Public Health Capstone Project II

Continuation of PUHE-508. . This two-part graduate-level course is designed to provide a culminating experience or integrative learning experience for students engaged in projects integrating course work in public health. The course allows students to reflect upon and illustrate their competency as a public health practitioner and develop their project idea. Students are required to begin creating their capstone project, in which they apply the knowledge gained in the MPH Program. They must integrate their knowledge of public health with current best practices and research in the field. Students will expand upon their idea in a written final product/report in the Public Health Capstone Part II course. The final Capstone project should be the result of work that is independently conducted, and that represents original research and critical analysis. Each project will contain an approved plan, executed project, and dissemination strategy. The material produced from both Capstone I and II will be presented to an audience of faculty and students the last week of class (for Part I) and two to three weeks before the end of class for Part II. *Both courses are restricted to public health students.
