Training the next generation of Maternal and Child Health leaders
Welcome to the Emory University Rollins School of Public Health Center of Excellence in Maternal and Child Health.
Our purpose is to improve the health of birthing persons, infants, children, youth, and their families by training future and current MCH practitioners.
We aim to expand the MCH workforce regionally and nationally
We offer MCH training for master’s and doctoral students through a certificate program and doctoral training program, with emphasis on increasing MCH leaders from historically disadvantaged groups. Our program participates in the Georgia MCH Leadership Collaborative, a partnership with Georgia State University’s GaLEND program, the Morehouse School of Medicine’s Center for Maternal Health Equity, and the Mercer University Center for Rural Health and Health Disparities.
The Center is part of a network of 13 CoEs across the country funded by the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA).
We offer MCH training through a certificate program and doctoral training program.
Our world-class faculty provide specialized coursework and mentorship for both Masters and PhD level students. Our unique location in the “Public Health Capitol of the World” ensures our trainees have the best internship opportunities, networks and leadership experiences.
