PH Student Stories

Carly Amon Shares Her MD/MPH Experience

"I entered here thinking that biostatistics was going to be it for me, because I really like data analysis and number crunching. I didn’t expect epidemiology classes to spark my interest as much as they did, but I really enjoyed them."

"To me, working toward the master’s degree in public health has been a highlight of med school."

For her efforts to protect, promote and advance the health and safety of all and for helping address public health issues in her community.

"I love that I can showcase the skills that I learned through the Applied Practical Experience and actually have deliverables at the end of it."

"I thought the curriculum design is great and prepares the student for a career in the healthcare industry."

"I spent my career working as a bench scientist and wanted to pivot my career in a new direction...the MPH allowed me to stay true to my science background and offer a wide variety of employment options."
