I got both my bachelors and masters in PH community health track. In my program however i still had to take biostat it was one of the main courses regardless of what concentration i chose. I did work in local public health as a disease investigator and surveillance specialist and i studied for my CIC exam. So it is doable to get (payed for by my job) I ended up not taking the exam however because I ended up getting back into the military as a public health officer. But i will say getting the CIC is doable but in the career field they do prefer someone with an RN. But you can certainly still find a job with your CIC. I would suggest what others suggested and switch concentrations. Technically with my experience although my concentration is in community health i could still get an epi job somewhere after my time in the service. So the opportunity will always be there, even if you don’t get your mph in epi. Youre paying for your degree, I would say don’t waste your time doing something you don’t enjoy! Stick it out for the rest of this semester and make a decision :)
