SPHTM ranks in top 10% of schools: Staying on the Front Lines | School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine

April 01, 2021 1:45 PM  |  COVID-19 put the spotlight on public health. Suddenly, everyone began talking about epidemiology, contact tracing, herd immunity, and more, and interest in careers in public health has skyrocketed. Amidst the surge of interest, the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine (SPHTM) is honored to maintain its position among the top 10% of schools and programs of public health, according to U.S. News. Over the past decade, programs of public health have proliferated, but Tulane has continued to stand out as a leader in the field, a position the school has held since it was the first such school established in the U.S. in 1912. The school was also a leader in online education, offering its first “distance learning” courses in 1992. SPHTM has expanded its online offerings over the past two years, with a slate of new online programs anticipated over the next few years.
