Graduate Program in Public Health
Academic Calendar 2008–2009
NOTES:
- GPPH Final Exams are given during class hours.
- All GPPH classes require 45 contact
hours. Due to holidays which fall
on Mondays, Monday classes may be extended or additional dates may be scheduled to
ensure the 45 hours.
- Students should contact faculty
prior to taking time off, including religious holidays. Arrangements must be made for making up
academic work missed. Per New York
State Education Law, Section 224-a: "Any student in an institution of higher
education who is unable, because of religious beliefs, to attend classes on
particular day or days shall, because of such absence on the particular day or
days, be excused from any examinations or any or work assignments." All missed work must be made up at the
discretion of the faculty.
