Global Health

Thank you for your interest in the Department of Global Health! Our department focuses on providing educational opportunities for those interested in global health issues, and emerging infectious disease threats worldwide. The program will prepare students for careers in governmental agencies such as the CDC, WHO, EPA, and USAID; non-profit governmental agencies such as the Helen Keller International and Save the Children Fund; state health departments; immigrant and migrant health services; philanthropic organizations such as the Gates Foundation; and research institutions and professional schools in the biomedical field. Foreign graduates would typically qualify for a position when they return to their home countries in the ministries of health, governmental and non-governmental health agencies, and academia.
