The Milken Institute School of Public Health (abbreviated as School of Public Health, Milken or SPH) is the school of public health of the George Washington University, in Washington, D.C.

U.S. News & World Report University Rankings ranks the SPH as the 14th best public health graduate program in the United States.

With 1,000 graduate students and 180 undergraduate students from nearly every U.S. state and more than 35 nations pursue undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral-level degrees in public health,[1] its student body is one of the most ethnically diverse among the nation's private schools of public health.

History

The GW School of Public Health and Health Services was established in July 1997, with Dr. Richard K. Riegelman as the Founding Dean, [2] bringing together three longstanding university programs in the schools of medicine, business, and education that have since expanded substantially.

On March 11, 2014, the Milken Institute, Sumner Redstone Charitable Foundation and the Milken Family Foundation donated a combined total of $80 million in three gifts to the renamed Milken Institute School of Public Health (Milken Institute SPH). The gifts also established the Sumner M. Redstone Global Center for Prevention and Wellness.
