Public Health

The best way to begin learning more about Public Health as a career option is to read "Getting Started with Public Health" under the Resources tab. Also under Resources is a Bookstore link that will take to a recommended list of books and resources on Public Health which you can buy online or find at your campus or local library.

Below, in the Articles section, you will find information about the experiences of life sciences PhDs and MDs who have chosen to pursue Public Health as an option and/or Public Health professionals who want to share insights specifically for people of your professional background.
