The Masters of Science in Health Policy Research prepares graduates for health services research and health policy research careers in academic, government, community, and industry settings.
This program is based in the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in collaboration with the Wharton School. The program is a joint venture between the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics (LDI) and the Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars Program (RWJ CSP) and is closely affiliated with the Annenberg School for Communication, the School of Social Policy and Practice, and the School of Nursing.
Health policy research investigates the organization, management, financing, and delivery of health care and the social forces that shape health in the US and the world. Health policy researchers are intrinsically multidisciplinary, using tools from a wide range of scientific disciplines to gain insight into the complex challenges facing health care.
Typical applicants will be physicians completing residency or fellowship training and interested in applying methods in health policy and health services research in academic, government, community, and industry settings. The program can be completed as part of a two year research component of a fellowship or residency. We will also consider medical students or other students who have or are currently enrolled in terminal degrees in other fields (Ph.D., J.D. or other degree).
