NDSU to stop offering American Public Indian Health master's degree as UND adds Indigenous Health doctoral program

FARGO — When students consider what degree to pursue at North Dakota State University this year, a master’s degree related to Native American health will no longer be an option.

The American Indian Public Health program that was meant to train graduate students to help Indigenous populations will stop accepting students this fall. Those enrolled in the concentration will be able to finish the master’s degree, bringing an end to a study that started eight years ago.

The decision to end the program was announced in conjunction with news in January that the University of North Dakota would launch a doctoral program titled Indigenous Health.
