The LBJ School and the School of Public Health offer a dual degree program leading to the MGPS degree and the Master of Public Health (MPH). The program combines advanced studies of globalization with a focus on the issues, organizations and skills needed to make meaningful contributions in the emerging field of international health. There is an increased need in both the public and private sectors for specialists with that combination of backgrounds. The School of Public Health is part of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) and has regional campuses in Austin, Dallas, El Paso, Brownsville and San Antonio. It is anticipated that the vast majority of Public Health students who opt for the dual degree will be from the Austin campus and that the majority of LBJ students who opt for the degree will take their courses at the Austin Regional Campus.
