The Jefferson School of Population Health (JSPH) is an integral part of Thomas Jefferson University, a premier academic health center founded in 1824 and located in Center City Philadelphia.
Jefferson provides a robust learning community comprised of clinicians, physicians, researchers, and educators. Students have access to world-class facilities and real-world learning opportunities. Most programs are offered asynchronously online, with the exception of the Master of Public Health, which is taught on campus. The collaboration that happens here is an important part of educating members of the healthcare team to work together.
Our Mission
At JSPH, we prepare leaders with global vision to develop, implement, and evaluate health policies and systems that improve the health of populations and thereby enhance the quality of life.
We fulfill this mission by providing exemplary graduate academic programming, continuing education courses and conferences, and sustained research and consulting in areas of health policy, population health, healthcare quality and safety, and chronic care management.
