Designed and delivered by Hopkins’ faculty from medicine, nursing, public health, business, and education, this unique inter-professional 34.5 credit degree program guides faculty to approach their teaching and curriculum development as hypothesis-driven work to benefit both their careers and your department.
Currently, more than 500 MEHP fellows from the U.S. and across the globe have built their core expertise in evidence-based teaching on an adult learning and development foundation.
