A Decade's Experience at Tufts with a Four-Year Combined Curriculum in Medicine and Public Health.

Boyer, Markley H.

Academic Medicine, v72 n4 p269-75 Apr 1997

The Tufts University (Massachusetts) School of Medicine's four-year combined M.D./Master's in Public Health program produces professionals trained and credentialed in both public health and medicine. The program, which has graduated 75 students, addresses both the care of the individual and the care of populations, and did not require drastic changes in medical school admission policy or curriculum.
