This program is designed to enrich a student's academic knowledge base as well as to strengthen a prospective medical student's credentials for admission to medical school. This one-year program consists of a rigorous graduate curriculum in the basic medical sciences and a semester long research internship course. 
 

The Master’s degree in Educational Leadership is based on the Graduate School of Education’s Administrative Services Credential preparation program as a precursor to more advanced study.  The program builds on the strengths of the administrative credential preparation program and serves as an effective forum for exploring the ideas, experiences, and issues encountered by new principals in their schools and districts.  The ability to share experiences and issues with other new administrators who are part of their cohort extends the power and purpose of the administrative preparation program design. 

By embracing innovation in the context of open and collaborative approaches to education, cohort members in this program explore and prototype new models for learning and performance. Through problem-based action research, participants cultivate provocative methods to support equity, literacy, and the re-imagining of school and learning to close achievement gaps, promote social justice and equity. 

Welcome to the Touro University California (TUC) Joint MSPAS/MPH home page!  In 33 months, our students earn two master degrees: a Master of Science in Physician Assistant (PA) Studies and a Master of Public Health (PH). The integration of these two professions provides our students the skills to assess both the individual and the community in which they live.

 The Public Health Program has successfully developed collaboration with local departments of health, community organizations and non-governmental organizations engaged in public health activities, which provide our students an abundant number of sites from which to gain field study experience. In addition, the Program has maintained well-established partnerships with institutions in Bolivia, Cambodia, and Ethiopia, which serve to provide students opportunities to engage in public health practice internationally. Following the field study, students complete the  Capstone Course — the integration of coursework and field experience. Students choose an applied project, consisting of a formal written manuscript and public presentation; or a comprehensive exam demonstrating their mastery and ability to integrate and apply core public health principles to issues that may confront public health professionals.
