Information may not be reliable

Many people who pursue a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree online do so for the convenience. Online degree programs allow people to continue their educations and earn the credential they need to either move up in the company they currently work for, or to make a career change without having to quit their jobs and essentially put their lives on hold while they return to the classroom for two years.

Those who balance both work and study essentially live double lives where they take one hat off at the end of a busy work day just to put on another as they begin their schoolwork for the evening.
