跨学科健康科学哲学博士

跨学科健康科学哲学博士（IHS）旨在为卫生与公共服务专业人士做好研究，教学和领导职业方面的准备。皮尤（Pew）健康专业委员会和国家联合健康委员会（National Allied Health）等几个国家委员会已经对高等教育机构提出挑战，要求它们设计更灵活的课程，消除学科界限并增加研究力度，以应对健康和相关系统的根本变化。卫生与公共服务学院通过开发三级课程（研究，政策和服务提供以及教学法）来应对这一挑战，所有课程都侧重于解决问题的跨学科方法。为了满足专业工作人员的需求，通过混合的电子学习模式和密集的周末和夏
The Doctor of Philosophy in Interdisciplinary Health Sciences (IHS) is designed to prepare Health and Human Service professionals for careers in research, teaching, and leadership. Several national commissions, including the Pew Health Professions Commission and the National Commission on Allied Health, have challenged higher educational institutions to respond to fundamental changes in health and related systems by designing more flexible curricula, removing disciplinary boundaries, and increasing research. The College of Health and Human Services has met this challenge by developing a three-strand curriculum - research, policy and service delivery, and pedagogy - all with a focus on interdisciplinary approaches to problem solving. In order to meet the needs of working professionals, the courses are delivered through a hybrid of e-learning modalities and intensive on-campus weekend and summer sessions. Students enter the program as a cohort once every two years (in even years) and can complete the didactic sequence in two years. Comprehensive examinations and dissertation research can be completed in an additional two to three years.
