How long are residency programs or fellowships and what is the general structure?
With the exception of a few combined PM programs (listed below), all programs are two years. The two-year training program generally includes an MPH year, often referred to as the Academic year, as well as rotations and flexible project time often referred to as the Practicum year. However, the individual structure, strengths, and exposures of each program are extremely variable depending on rotations, schools of public health, and academic focus. Some programs may accept an applicant who already has an MPH directly into the Practicum Year, depending on the degree and classes taken.
