AI Summary
This bill would authorize the California State University (CSU) to award the Doctor of Public Health (DrPH) degree, which is currently only offered by the University of California (UC) system. The DrPH degree programs at CSU would be focused on health and scientific knowledge translation, transformative community leadership, and addressing the public health workforce needs in California. The bill requires that fees for the CSU DrPH programs be comparable to, but not higher than, the fees charged for the UC DrPH degree. Additionally, the bill stipulates that funding for the new CSU DrPH programs must come from within the existing CSU budget without diminishing support for undergraduate programs or reducing undergraduate enrollment.
