课程简介

在许多美国尚未解决的社会问题中，公共卫生，公共政策和卫生差距问题处于最前沿。不断上涨的医疗保健成本对经济构成了越来越大的威胁，而对于某些人来说，即使是最基本的医疗保健也很微弱。律师在社会处理这些公共卫生问题的方法中起着核心作用。但是，由于对公共卫生问题的了解不足，其有效性常常受到限制。为了弥补这一教育差距，孟菲斯大学创建了法学博士学位/ MPH双学位课程。该计划为学生提供了同时攻读法学博士学位（法学博士学位）和公共卫生硕士（MPH）的机会。学生将能够在四年的全日制学习中完成两个学位的学习，比单独完成每个学
Public health, public policy and issues of health disparities are at the forefront of many of America's unresolved social problems. Rising health care costs pose a growing threat to the economy, while for some access to even the most basic health care is tenuous. Lawyers play a central role in society's approach to these public health issues. However, their effectiveness is frequently limited by an inadequate knowledge of public health matters. To close this educational gap, the University of Memphis has created the JD/MPH dual degree program. The program offers students the opportunity to pursue the JD (juris doctor) and MPH (master of public health) degrees simultaneously. Students will have the ability to complete both degrees in four years of full-time study, a year less than it would take to complete each degree separately. The goal of the JD/MPH program is to prepare and train students to apply law and policy to benefit public health. The dual degree allows law students to combine in-depth advocacy and policy skills learned in the UofM's JD program with the population health perspective gained in the MPH program to address policy and advocacy needs at the community level.
