EMPH Current Students

UCLA’s Executive Master of Public Health Program in Health Policy and Management is designed for working professionals. Each year, a class of students representing various clinical, managerial, and professional backgrounds is admitted as a single cohort into the two-year program. From clinicians, program managers, and specialists to administrators, nurses, lawyers, and other professionals, our students greatly benefit from the wide range of knowledge and experience brought into the classroom.
