“As an infection preventionist at Sharp Memorial Hospital, Shannon Mabalot wanted to enhance her level of expertise by pursuing a master’s degree in public health. Her medical director mentioned the program at San Diego State University, and Mabalot was pleased to discover the new online option.
In fall 2017, SDSU launched the fully online 20-month Master of Public Health degree in Health Promotion and Behavioral Science through the SDSU Graduate School of Public Health, administered by the College of Extended Studies. The 51-unit program is accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH), and includes 3 units of internship.”
