Course Information
The Applied Practice Experience (APEx) provides students with the opportunity to apply knowledge and skills from their MPH coursework to real-world public health challenges in community and organizational settings. The APEx is a 160-hour field experience in which students work with public, private, or community-based organizations, producing at least two deliverables that demonstrate attainment of three CEPH foundational competencies and two program-specific competencies. Group projects may be approved if each student’s role and contributions are clearly defined. Each student must complete their own APEx deliverables and academic assignments. This course may be repeated for up to 4 credits.
