The University of Michigan School of Public Health houses one of the oldest Preventive Medicine Residency programs in the country, dating back to 1969. The central mission of the School of Public Health's residency in General Preventive Medicine and Public Health is to train highly-qualified physicians for careers in public health, clinical preventive medicine, medical epidemiology and health administration.
Our mission is accomplished through the provision of rigorous academic course work resulting in a Master of Public Health degree in general epidemiology, environmental health sciences or health management and policy, and through broad practicum experiences with concentrations in applied epidemiology, public health practice, and clinical preventive medicine.
The General Preventive Medicine and Public Health Residency is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and prepares physicians for board eligibility by the American Board of Preventive Medicine.
