Beginning in 2015, faculty, students, and staff from the Gillings School of Global Public Health have begun to come together to develop the new Gillings  MPH Core curriculum. Since the first meetings in early 2015, the planning and implementation and evaluation committees have made tremendous progress in transforming the integrated core from an idea to a reality. Gillings is committed to making the development of the integrated core a transparent and responsive process.
