    The Rollins School of Public Health (RSPH) is the public health school of Emory University. Founded in 1990, RSPH has more than 850 students pursuing master's degrees (MPH/MSPH) and over 100 students pursuing doctorate degrees (PhD). The school is comprised of six departments: Behavioral Sciences/Health Education (BSHE), Biostatistics (BIOS), Environmental and Occupational Health (EOH), Epidemiology (EPI), Global Health (GH), and Health Policy and Management (HPM).
    In addition to pursuing degrees from a single department, students may combine interests and participate in joint programs, both within RSPH and in conjunction with other professional schools at Emory. Unique programs to Rollins are Global Environmental Health, Global Epidemiology, and the joint EOH/EPI MSPH program.

    Rollins is uniquely situated in the "public health capital of the world," sharing the Clifton Corridor with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Cancer Society. In addition to partnerships with the CDC and the American Cancer Society, many faculty and students are involved with other Atlanta-based organizations, such as CARE and the Carter Center.

    The RSPH Office of Career Services is extremely active in aiding current and former students develop and achieve professional goals. In addition to standard career center functions such as résumé/cover letter reviews and interview preparation, Career Services frequently partners with the Rollins Alumni Association and other community partners to provide networking opportunities and mentoring.
