The PhD program in the Department of Public Health Sciences at the University of Chicago offers advanced training in foundational fields of public health, including biostatistics, epidemiology, health services research, health economics, behavioral and social sciences, global health, and environmental health. The program is supported by a core methodological curriculum in population-based research on human health. Students completing the program will be prepared to design and conduct methodological and substantive research on fundamental questions about human health and biomedical science from a population perspective. They will also be prepared to collaborate with colleagues from different disciplines to carry out such research.
