What is the usual amount of time it takes to complete the course work for the Ph.D.?
Most students will be able to complete the course work in 6-8 terms (4 terms per year). Students with prior masters degrees may be able to waive out of some courses if they can show that they have already taken similar courses at other institutions. Students who have completed the MHS or MPH at Hopkins may also be able to complete the course work sooner if they have already taken some of the requirements for those degrees.
