The University of Kentucky College of Public Health is accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) and the Master of Health Administration is accredited by Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education (CAHME).
CEPH is an independent agency recognized by the US Department of Education to accredit schools of public health and public health programs offered in settings other than schools of public health. These schools and programs prepare students for entry into careers in public health.
The College is in the middle of preparing for our next CEPH reaccreditation site visit which will be in the Spring of 2025. Behind the scenes, a myriad of meetings is happening to ensure we have the resources and data need to present our story to CEPH. The following is a current timeline of where we are at in the process:
CAHME is the only organization recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) to accredit graduate healthcare management programs in the United States & Canada. CAHME serves the public by promoting, evaluating, and improving the quality of graduate healthcare management education.
The University of Kentucky College of Public Health is undergoing a review by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) for re-accreditation. Part of this process includes the invitation to provide third-party comments. Anyone, including students, alumni, employers, community partners, etc., is allowed to share relevant information about the college directly with CEPH. If you would like to provide input to CEPH to inform their review, send your comments to submissions@ceph.org by May 4th, 2025.
