Description
The Commonwealth Fund Fellowship in Health Policy Leadership at Harvard University is a one-year, full-time, academic degree-granting program for physicians. Supported by The Commonwealth Fund, it prepares leaders to improve health for all, with particular emphasis on disadvantaged, vulnerable, and uninsured populations. Its focus is on transforming health care delivery systems and advancing policies, practices, and programs that address health equity and the social determinants of health.
Fellows complete coursework leading to a Master of Public Health at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health or, for those with a prior MPH, a Master of Public Administration at the Harvard Kennedy School. Academic study is combined with leadership forums, seminars with nationally recognized health care and policy leaders, site visits, shadowing, and practicum projects.
