Dissemination the DrPH Project Manuscript

Aspen University holds to the tradition that students are obligated as a member of the scholarly community to make their project available to interested persons. Scholarship in Public Health can be defined as those activities that systematically advance the teaching, research, and practice of Public Health as well as the integration such as presentations; and policy proposal designed to influence organizations or governments.

Upon final acceptance of the DrPH Project, the student should submit the manuscript for publication in a peer-reviewed journal or present at a conference.

If the DrPH is the result of a collaborative research effort, the project should be structured in such a way that the Doctoral Student has supplied a major effort. The contributions of the student and the other collaborators must be clearly identified. The student is responsible for defending the DrPH. Published articles authored by the student

and based on research conducted for the DrPH study may be included in the DrPH, provided the published work is logically connected and integrated into the DrPH in a coherent manner. The student must be clearly delineated as the sole or primary author of the published work.
