Self Study Document
The ETSU College of Public Health is accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH). The College is also a full member of the Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health (ASPPH).
Every seven years, all Schools of Public Health in the country are required to submit a self-study and then host a site visit from the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH), in order to maintain accreditation. There are 284 criteria, organized into 45 categories that are then determined to be “met,” “met with commentary,” “partially met,” or “not met.”
The College submitted its self-study in March 2023 and a site visit team came to ETSU towards the end of April. During their two and a half day visit, the site-visitors reviewed hundreds of data points in the self-study, and met with ETSU leadership, as well as with faculty, staff, students, alumni, and community members.
Their finding that all categories were “met” was confirmed by the CEPH board at their December meeting. Faculty in the College of Public Health have participated in over 50 site visits to other schools of public health and do not recall any other site visit that had only “met” findings.
Dr. Wykoff hopes that everyone shares his exceptional pride in our faculty and staff who have worked so diligently to assure that we provide our students “an exceptional educational experience in a world-class environment.”
Please forward comments or questions about accreditation or the Self-Study to Rachel Kellogg, Interim Assistant Dean for Assessment and Accreditation at kelloggr@etsu.edu.
