New Peace Corps - Public Health Sciences Partnership

Peace Corps and U.Va.’s Public Health Sciences Department have just established a new “Master’s International” partnership whereby applicants can combine Public Health course-work at U.Va. with Peace Corps service towards receiving a Master of Public Health degree.  Some of the details are still being worked out, but all questions should be directed to Dr. Paige Hornsby (phornsby@virginia.edu) for specific information about financial aid, admission requirements, etc. For any students who are considering both Peace Corps and an MPH program (and who like having part of their education paid for), this is definitely an option worth thinking about!
