Online Programs at Rollins

Get a Rollins Education From Anywhere

For professionals already working in public health, it isn't always possible to move to a new city to further your education. Whether you want to build foundational skills with a full- or part-time Master of Public Health (MPH) or expand your leadership horizons with a Doctor of Public Health (DrPH) degree, Rollins has you covered.

Our online programs offer the same hands-on curriculum, academic support, and faculty connection as our on-campus programs, but with the added convenience of completing your coursework from wherever you are.

Online Part-Time MPH

Gain the skills necessary to be an influential public health professional—on your schedule. Our part-time MPH programs are designed for working professionals and students who want to learn at their own pace. Courses provide an interactive experience with specified assignment due dates, but you decide how many courses you take each semester to accommodate your schedule.

International Applicants

Rollins School of Public Health appreciates and encourages applications from students around the globe.

Many countries regulate distance education. Rollins is currently in the process of establishing required agreements that will allow us to consider international applicants with residency outside the U.S. for fully online programs. Permanent residents and students who are non-U.S. citizens but currently reside in the U.S. on other types of visas, such as an H1B, are welcome to apply.

Please note, fully online programs are not eligible for F-1 or J-1 student visa sponsorship. These programs are currently structured to enroll students who can pursue their studies without requiring student visa sponsorship through Emory University.

We encourage prospective applicants with questions about eligibility to contact the admissions team for guidance.
