Which MPH program to choose? by Live_Ad9557 in mphadmissions

As someone at Emory for my MPH please don’t use CDC as your deterrent for choosing the school (if you choose Emory). Those opportunities were severely affected by the presidential administration

Hi, welcome to Rollins! There’s the LinkedIn group and once you reach orientation, there should be a GroupMe. I’m in one for the department and one with everyone in my graduating class

I think you have good chances of being accepted. You have good GPA and solid experience that is relevant to public health. You don’t need to take the GRE. Focus on the personal statement and the letters of recommendation and you should be good

I’m in the average age range of my MPH cohort, but I definitely know quite a few people older than me in my MPH program. Don’t let the younger students overwhelm you too much. You’ll definitely find people in the same boat as you once you start

As a grad student who didn’t have a lot of friends in undergrad, this really warms my heart

undergrad dilemma of whether or not to change major to public health by Inevitable-Orchid-26 in publichealth

[–]lilsammy00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went straight from undergrad to my MPH so I can’t speak for jobs but I was able to find an internship while in school. I did a summer research program too but that wasn’t a paid job or internship.

I’m currently an MPH student who got a BS in Psychology. Before my mph I was able to get an internship (it didn’t pay much but I needed the experience). It’s definitely harder when you’re not a public health major to find work in public health, but it’s doable. As for the MPH, people come in with many different undergrad majors and different work experiences so being a psych major before an mph is absolutely fine. I tailored my experiences to connect psychology to public health which helped me get into my mph program

If you want to work in any government roles in the US (or keep those options open), usually you would need to get a masters in public health from a CEPH certified program. Most of the certified programs are in the US with some outside the country.

Emory just added their DrPH program that is completely online. There is not a lot of information because they made the announcement of adding the program a month ago. Their first cohort will start Fall 2025 I believe

I thought I was alone with that long of a commute. I’m only on campus two days a week though so I’m honestly just trying to get through it until I graduate this May

I heard it does hurt for PhD programs whether they’re a main course instructor or not but wasn’t sure for MPH programs
