The Program on Forced Migration and Health is committed to professionalizing the field of humanitarian response. The Program pursues its mission by training the next generation of public health and humanitarian response workers, leading innovative research, training, and advocacy initiatives, and by offering technical assistance to international organizations.

Forced Migration students come with at least two years of related work experience, elevating classroom discourse and learning. Teaching and research are closely intertwined, allowing students to actively participate in many of our faculty's field work.


Beginning Fall 2012, the Program on Forced Migration and Health will offer the Public Health and Humanitarian Assistance Certificate. Get full details on our Prospective Students page.
