Master of Public Health

A thesis is a substantive and original body of work that allows the student to synthesize and integrate knowledge from their public health course work and practicum experiences, apply it to a particular topic area, and communicate their ideas and findings through a scholarly written product. The thesis represents the culmination of the student’s educational experience in the Vanderbilt MPH Program.

The thesis may take on different formats, depending on the student’s track focus and interests. Regardless of the format chosen, the student must apply critical thought, systematic analysis, and clear presentation.

Each student is responsible for identifying a topic and appropriate format for their thesis with the assistance and guidance of faculty advisers and faculty thesis readers.

The practicum product must be distinct from the thesis. Although the practicum and thesis can be related, the student must be able to articulate how the two projects are independent from one another. The practicum is a practice experience that allows students to apply and develop skills in public health concepts. The thesis is the synthesis and integration of knowledge acquired in coursework and through the practicum and results in an original scholarly work.

The main objective of the study is to find out if third year student in Ahfad University, show some extent of anxiety and whether this is related to some social demographic factors. Methods: Beck anxiety Inventory (BAI) was used to measure anxiety level in randomly selected 182 students from different schools within the university campus. Statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS 16. Results: We found that the prevalence of anxiety was significant in third year students related to their age, economic and residential status and also related to their academic performances stating that students with low social demographic factors and with academic problems will experience higher levels of anxiety than those with good social demographic status and with no academic problems. Conclusion: From this study it is clear that the prevalence of anxiety was significant in third year students related to their age, economic and residential status and also related to their academic performances. We recommend more studies for further understanding the relation of anxiety with socio demographic factors.

University students, especially those in their first year, not only face challenges related to their personal life but also to their academic performance. Such unfavorable conditions predispose them to psychological illnesses such as depression and anxiety. The present study surveyed first-year undergraduate students to assess the prevalence of depression and anxiety and their potential underlying reasons. A cross-sectional questionnaire was conducted with 400 first-year university students aged between 18 and 23 years residing at Jahangirnagar University (in Bangladesh). After providing informed consent, the participants completed a survey examining socio-demographic variables and behavioral variables, along with the PHQ-9 scale, and the GAD-7 scale. Binary logistic regression was performed to determine the significant associations between the variables under examination. The prevalence rates of moderate to extremely severe levels of depression and anxiety were 69.5% and 61%, respe...

This study investigated Academic Stress, Academic Anxiety and Psychological Health among newly admitted undergraduate students of Baze University Abuja. The Cross-sectional survey design was employed where 211 newly admitted students consisting of 91 (43.1%) males and 120 (56.9%) females were used. Their ages ranged from 20-54years with the mean age of 36.88 years (SD=4.202). Convenient sampling was used to draw samples for the study. Three instruments were used for data collection; The Academic Stress Inventory, Academic Anxiety Source Instrument and the Ryff’s Psychological Wellbeing Scale. Three hypotheses were tested using Multiple Linear Regression and Standard Multiple Regression. Findings indicated that academic stress significantly predicted psychological health among newly admitted undergraduate students of Baze University Abuja. The result further indicated that all the dimensions of Academic Stress; Teacher Stress, Result Stress, Test Stress, Group Studying Stress, Peer Stress, Time Management and Self-Inflicted Stress made significant contributions in the prediction of Psychological Health. Secondly, the result also indicated that Academic Anxiety significantly predicted Psychological Health among newly admitted undergraduate students of Baze University Abuja. The result further indicated that all the dimensions of Academic Anxiety; Study Task Source, Emotional Source, Social Source, Language Source and Family Source significantly predicted Psychological health. The result also showed that Academic Stress and Academic Anxiety jointly predicted Psychological Health among newly admitted undergraduate students of Baze University Abuja. It was recommended that Clinical and School Psychologists should develop intervention programmes to reduce the stress and anxiety that students face in the course of studying, since the two factors were noted to affect students’ psychological health. In addition, the Students’ Affairs Division of universities should schedule periodic psychological health check–up for newly admitted undergraduate students. This will keep them in the right mental state to pursue their academic goals.

Objective: To determine the frequency of anxiety and depression among medical students of Wah Medical College and their associations with sociodemographic and educational characteristics if any. Study design: Cross-sectional survey. Place and duration of study: Wah Medical College, from September 2007 to March 2008. Methodology: A sample of 279 students was included in the study after excluding first year medical students because they were admitted for less than 6 months. A self administered Encounter Form was administered. Sociodemographic and educational characteristics included age, gender, birth order, number of siblings, monthly income, monthly expenditure on education, academic performance in professional examination, past medical and past psychiatric history, substance abuse and family history of psychiatric illness. Beck depression inventory and beck anxiety inventory were used to assess the level of depression and anxiety. The chi-square test was applied at 5% level of significance to determine associated factors for anxiety and depression respectively. Results: The mean age of students was 21.4+/-1.41 years with female preponderance i.e. 202 (72.4%). Anxiety was present in 133 (47.7%) students and depression in 98 (35.1%) students. Both were found concomitantly in 68 (24.37%) students. Age (p=0.013), gender (p=0.016), examination criteria dissatisfaction (p=0.002) and overburden with test schedule (p=0.002) were significantly associated with depression. Anxiety was significantly associated with gender (p=0.007), birth order (p=0.049), year of study (p=0.001), examination criteria dissatisfaction (p=0.010) and overburden with test schedule (p=0.006). Conclusion: One third of students were found to have anxiety and depression which was associated with the sociodemographic and educational factors as stated above.

Master of Public Health

Thesis- in person program.

In-person MPH student demonstrates their strengths in research, policy, or program evaluation through a thesis project. Students in the generalist concentration (delivered online) demonstrate their strengths in research, policy, or program evaluation through a capstone project.

All in-person MPH students are required to complete a thesis. There are no formal requirements for a candidacy examination in order to progress to writing a master’s thesis for the MPH degree. Therefore, the development of a master’s thesis is an ongoing process during the student’s academic program. Thesis projects may be descriptive research, investigative research, public health policy development or assessment, or a program evaluation. The thesis must have an analytic component, which may be qualitative, as well as quantitative. The thesis must also have utility, with some application for public health action.

The thesis project involves a smaller scale of administrative and data management activities than a typical MS or PhD thesis. Students may use existing datasets or develop their own, although the latter, by necessity, usually involves small population samples. Faculty conducting research in the centers, programs, and institutes of the School of Public Health have a large array of research projects using public relevant databases. The Department of Health and other state agencies have public use data sets and other sources of data are available from federal public health agencies.

Our goal is to prepare students to improve human health on a large scale—whether by influencing health policy, by designing better public health interventions, or by investigating environmental and community health risks. That’s why we place so much emphasis on research.

“My research examines the various factors that make the lives of children with asthma difficult. These factors include dangerous exposures that may be present in old housing, neighborhood characteristics that prevent children with asthma from being able to engage in physical activity, or even familial beliefs and behaviors that may be detrimental in the long run.”
