Master of Public Health partnership with the Medical College of Wisconsin
Public health is at the forefront of many discussions today, and the need is rapidly increasing for highly trained public health professionals who can synthesize medical knowledge, educate communities, shape public policy and engage in research for the benefit of the common good.
In partnership with the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, SNC offers a dual-degree program that will allow you to earn both a Bachelor of Science degree and a Master of Public Health (M.P.H.) degree in just five years — a full year faster than the typical degree path, and at a significantly lower cost.

Dual-degree program
The liberal arts foundation that you’ll receive at SNC provides you with strong analytical, problem-solving and communication skills that will allow you to learn and adapt as the public health field changes over time.
If you take advantage of SNC’s partnership with MCW, you’ll spend your first three years working on undergraduate courses at SNC. Afterward, you’ll continue your graduate studies with the M.P.H. program at MCW’s Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences.
Through the partnership agreement with MCW, up to 10 SNC students will be accepted into the program each year. The program is open to any major, but you must meet certain core requirements to be admitted. Interested students should have completed composition, biology and statistics courses and have a minimum 3.0 GPA. Transfer students are also eligible.
Graduates of the Master of Public Health partnership program work with nonprofits, hospitals, health departments and governmental agencies, including the CDC. These are among the many professionals well-served by an MPH degree:
- Health care administrators
- Epidemiologists
- Lobbyists
- Policy analysts
- Researchers
- Biostatisticians
- Public health journalists
