1 Office of Programs and Academic Assessment (MC 103) 2630 University Hall 601 South Morgan Street Chicago, IL February 1, 2014 TO: FROM: Ilene Harris, Chair Senate Committee on Educational Policy Dana Wright, Director for Academic Program Development I am submitting for the information of the Senate Committee on Educational Policy the attached Proposal to Establish an Online Version of the Master of Science in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration). The proposal was approved by the Health Policy and Administration Division in April 2012, the School of Public Health Committee on Educational Policy in May 2013, and the SPH Executive Committee in June In addition, the proposal was shared as an information item with the Graduate College Executive Committee on January 24, Please note that students completing the online MS in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration) will be required to complete a secondary concentration in Public Health Informatics. The Proposal to Establish a Concentration in Public Health Informatics within the Online MS in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration) has been submitted as a separate proposal (see PR-14.31), as it requires a different level of campus and external review and approval. Both proposals will be considered at the February 6, 2014 SCEP meeting. ATTACHMENT
2 Title: Sponsor: Executive Summary: Proposal to Establish an Online Version of the Master of Science in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration) School of Public Health Health Policy and Administration (HPA) Division The Master of Science in Public Health provides a general understanding of public health, along with research competence in a chosen area. MS students apply for admission into one of five primary areas (which have official designations as concentrations): Biostatistics, Community Health Sciences, Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, Epidemiology, and Health Policy and Administration. In addition, students have the option of earning secondary concentrations. Graduates are prepared not only for pursuing the PhD, but also for intermediate to senior level positions in a wide array of health settings. Currently the MS is an onsite-only program. SPH proposes to establish an online version of the MS in Public Health in the area of Health Policy and Administration. The online MS in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration) will have the same degree requirements as the onsite MS. Note: Students completing the online MS in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration) will be required to complete a secondary concentration in Public Health Informatics. The proposal to establish a concentration in Public Health Informatics within the online MS in Public Health (HPA) has been submitted as a separate proposal, as it requires a different level of campus and external review and approval. The attached catalog statement includes both the online MS and proposed PHI concentration to avoid any confusion. Description: The Master of Science in Public Health provides a general understanding of public health, along with research competence in a chosen area. MS students apply for admission into one of five primary areas (which have official designations as concentrations): Biostatistics, Community Health Sciences, Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, Epidemiology, and Health Policy and Administration. In addition, students have the option of earning secondary concentrations affiliated with their primary concentration. Graduates are prepared not only for pursuing the PhD, but also for intermediate- to seniorlevel positions in a wide array of health settings. Currently the MS is an onsite-only program. SPH proposes to establish an online version of the MS in Public Health in the area of Health Policy and Administration. The online MS in Public Health (Health Policy and Administration) will have the same degree requirements as the onsite MS. The School of Public Health has extensive experience in delivering online course content and degrees. It is worth noting that the School offers online versions of two other degrees (both of which are also offered onsite) the Doctor of Public Health (DrPH) and Master of Public Health (MPH). Justification: The online version of the MS degree is required in order to attract a national audience of informatics professionals who need additional training but are not 1
3 currently able to leave their jobs and re-locate themselves and their families to Chicago. Catalog Statement: See attached Minority Impact Statement: The ability to complete an online MS in Public Health and the flexibility it provides is anticipated to be an attractive option to students of all backgrounds. Budgetary and Staff Implications: It is anticipated that the degree will be self-supporting program given the revenue generated from e-tuition recovery. Library Resource Implications: None as resources currently in place for the onsite MS will be sufficient. Space Implications: Unit (e.g. department) approval date: College (educational policy committee, faculty) approval dates: None, this is an online degree and all classes, meetings, theses defenses and other activities will be conducted online. Approved by the Health Policy and Administration Division in April Approved by the School of Public Health Committee on Educational Policy in May Approved by the School of Public Health Executive Committee in June Contact Person: Edward Mensah Associate Professor, Health Policy and Administration and Director, Public Health Informatics Program Proposed Effective Date/Term: Fall
