Boston University offers highly motivated students a unique opportunity to combine professional training in law and public health through this dual degree program offered by the School of Law (LAW) and the School of Public Health (SPH). Successful candidates receive both the Juris Doctor (JD) and a Master of Public Health (MPH). The dual degree program can be completed in seven semesters, rather than the minimum nine semesters required to obtain each degree independently because some courses can be credited toward both degrees. Graduates of the JD/MPH program enter careers in federal and state government agencies and legislative offices, private law practices, universities, hospitals, insurers, biotechnology companies, and nonprofit organizations.
