Take your public and global health studies international to design, implement, and evaluate interventions that improve population health—integrating epidemiology, biostatistics, health policy, environmental health, and social and behavioral sciences across cultural and institutional contexts. International study immerses you in diverse health systems and community settings, expanding how you conduct surveillance, analyze determinants of health, and translate evidence into programs for prevention and care. You’ll advance in outbreak investigation, program design and monitoring, health economics and policy analysis, and implementation science while tackling projects in maternal and child health, infectious and chronic disease, environmental exposures, and mental health. Build your portfolio through field placements with ministries of health, NGOs, and clinics; community-based participatory research; and ethics and equity frameworks—strengthening data-driven decision-making, cross-cultural collaboration, and the ability to scale effective, culturally responsive public health solutions.
