Single Course Options
Overview
The single courses offered by the Extended Degree Program (ExDP) are the same elective and pathway courses offered to our degree students. These courses may be taken, with permission of the program, as single courses outside of any degree or certificate program. Credit earned may be transferrable if a student is later admitted into a Certificate or Degree Program, and should be applicable in the future for public health certification.
In addition, students in the resident UW MPH degree program may request permission to take the ExDP summer seminar courses.
