Students should be able to download applications onto their computer. They will be required to download free or provided software as part of class.
All students will be required to participate in an orientation session. Students will be expected to take and complete the MPH Onboarding/Orientation Course (PUBH 895), which will introduce them to the MPH Program, the faculty & staff, as well as instructions on how to use the course website.
Students will also be responsible for completing the course before the term begins. Students will perform the common actions that they will be responsible for during their courses (i.e. participating in discussions, uploading documents, examinations, etc.).
Finally, students will be connected to their faculty advisor. Students and faculty advisors must arrange an initial meeting (via web conference if online).
