The MS in Community Health Sciences at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health is a research‑oriented graduate program emphasizing community or psychosocial public health research. Students receive training in designing and conducting community-based research, program planning and evaluation, and foundational biostatistics and epidemiology, with topical study across health equity/disparities, health education and promotion, reproductive and population health, global health, health across the life span, and research methodology. The program requires a minimum of 60 quarter units and culminates in either (a) a comprehensive examination plus a major written research report or (b) a master’s thesis reviewed by a thesis committee. Time to degree is typically two years of full-time study. 来源： https://ph.ucla.edu/node/1571 https://ph.ucla.edu/node/1571
