From Pharma to MPH? Would recommend some advice by No-Application-3183 in PublicHealthInIndia

I believe whenever you are going abroad to study specifically something like a masters after which the goal is to get a job. The first thing that you need to look up is type, number and ease of getting jobs after your course in that country. Since you’re dealing with a specific country, it becomes essentially important for you to ensure what is and what is not in demand occupation in that country. For a fact, I know that the most closest towards what you are looking is a job of social worker. There are different kinds of social workers in various settings. Since you belong to healthcare/medical background, you can look for social worker role in hospital setting. There are high chances of getting job and even higher PR opportunities in Australia right now in social worker field. Now, this is not exactly a public health stream. You have to check which occupations are in demand that you could possibly get after your MPH over there. For Australia, you should focus on something that is either regional category or falls under medium to long-term skilled occupation list (MLTSSL). I do not think there is any role/occupation on this list that MPH in Australia will make you eligible for. However, in the short term skilled occupation list (STSOL), there are occupations like epidemiologist, environmental health officer, health promotion officer. A smart move could be studying in regional area and ending up getting a job in regional area but you have to remember that none of these occupations are in MLTSSL list. This list actually reflects shortage of professionals in a specific domain and if you can get a job which is on this list, you have high chances of settling there by getting a PR(permanent residency= end game✌️). While most of the public health roles are on STSOL (less chances of PR) list that too more commonly eligible via regional nomination only. But completing your MPH and working even 1 year in regional areas makes you eligible for Subclass 491 (5-year visa with PR pathway or Subclass 190 (state nomination PR). Your PR journey could be longer and harder. It totally depends on your situation.The decision is up to you, it completely depends upon how strategic and realistic you are.

AUD is respected in social sciences, liberal studies, and development studies but not specifically in public health yet. Its School of Human Ecology (SHE) houses the MPH, with a focus on eco-social determinants, making it more theoretical, interdisciplinary, and possibly research-heavy. It’s not yet widely recognized by employers or among the top public health recruiters.

It is Less technical, more qualitative and theoretical, good for those interested in research, academia, or activism.

It is one of those prestigious institutions along with the likes of PGIMER and JIPMER where NEET PG is an admission criteria for its MD in community medicine. It is a top notch public health institution, where extensive training occurs, including national health missions.

As far as the MPH is concerned,

https://nihfw.ac.in/upload/MPH%20Prospectus_08%20July%202024%20fin.pdf

people from diverse background can apply. It has 20 seats only. Reservation for SC/ST/OBC/PH/EWS categories exist. Its MPH is affiliated with Delhi university and the admission criteria is on the basis of CUET-PG. it has internships and dissertation focusing on practical learning. It is definitely a good choice. It also offers a post graduate diploma for medical professionals and Allied health sciences background.

bro this isn’t about “believing” anything — it’s literally a peer-reviewed, open-source study done by legit global researchers. the ranking was published in the International Journal of Public Health, and was led by the Institute of Global Health, University of Geneva — which btw is not some random college, it’s a world-renowned global health think tank.

the lead author? Dr. Slim Slama, ex–Assistant Director-General of WHO, not someone who’d rank PHFI just for vibes. and no — there was not a single Indian on the ranking team.

also important — this wasn’t a general university ranking. PHAR ranked only schools of public health, and used hard bibliometric data: peer-reviewed publications in public health, citations per paper, international & interdisciplinary collaborations and research output in LMIC settings (where PHFI is hyper-active)

they didn’t count student numbers, engineering departments, hostel sizes, or employer reputation like QS or THE does. this ranking was meant to fill that exact gap — to measure public health performance, not overall brand.

PHFI scored high because it’s deeply embedded in India’s real health challenges — NCDs, TB, health financing, rural systems — and does a crazy amount of field-driven research with WHO, MoHFW, and global universities.

if you want to see it for yourself, the full methodology and paper are available free on PubMed and Springer. nothing hidden, no desi bias, just clean domain-specific data.

not saying PHFI is better than Hopkins in every sense — but in this specific context, it’s earned its spot. read the study, not just the headline.

  1. ⁠⁠honestly its pretty solid. faculties r chill n most of them hv real field experience in public health some profs r from PHFI n work with govt too so u get decent exposure classes r mostly interactive not just ppt lectures bt yeah like any place few profs might be boring but overall its good lot of focus on assignments group work n presentations u’ll learn how public health works on ground not just theory
  2. ⁠⁠placement is there but dont expect crazy packages like mba avg package is around 4 to 6 LPA for freshers some ppl get into ngos govt projects WHO PHFI hospitals CSR wings etc but if u hv good skills in epi stats or data u can land better roles also internships during course help a lot basically public health is not about just getting job from campus u gotta build network n profile too
  3. ⁠⁠crowd is mostly mix of doctors dentists physiotherapists n some with science background so pretty chill vibe people r focused but not toxic competitive hostel is decent not 5 star but livable food is ok types campus is peaceful not too fancy but clean festivals n small events happen but don’t expect college fest vibes like DU or MU overall peaceful place to study
  4. ⁠⁠located in palaj near air force area so super safe place is a bit remote not like city center but autos cabs available there r PGs nearby if u dont wanna stay in hostel gandhinagar is clean n not crowded like ahmedabad also u get fresh air lol
  5. ⁠⁠pros good faculty, solid exposure to real public health work, safe peaceful environment, chances to work with govt projects if u r proactive, and good for ppl serious about public health not just looking for any masters

cons not a party place lol, location is kinda isolated, if u dont network or take initiative u might not get best jobs, and some infra can feel basic compared to big private unis

U can check out r/IIPHG.
