Obtaining my MPH degree is my starting point into a career in public health. Can I still apply to the Program given I have no direct public health work experience?
Yes, you can still apply to the Program. However, since our program is offered in the evenings we highly encourage you to investigate obtaining a paid or unpaid position to gain simultaneous direct work experience in public health. This type of experience provides a valuable context for your MPH coursework. In terms of your application to the Program, we invite students to highlight the transferable skills brought from previous paid and volunteer experiences, as well as public health career interests/aspirations.
