Is a career in public health right for me? 

I've been working in public health for about 15 years now - and I LOVE it.. :)

I having been trying to find myself careerwise and am finally studying environmental epidemiology. I love what am learning and watching this video makes me feel that i made a right decision. thanks you guys for presenting the different perspectives of public health.

Loved this video can't wait to become a Public Healthcare Worker!!

Wow! I'm growing more and more interested in this field. Considering this degree for Masters.

I find this interesting and challenging. I was a surgical technologist then worked in Information Systems for year, which has paid well but really isn't what I would call fun or gives you the feeling of helping people.

Very helpful!! Thank you for this video :)

Thanks this video was very insightful!!

I'm currently working on my MPH!

thanks so much for this video! Extremely helpful

Pretty informative. Thanks :)

Very helpful. Thanks

Best video I’ve ever seen about public health careers

i want to explore public health ideas to all over the world

very nice video! :)

Does anybody know what kind of hours public health nurses work? 9-5? or 12 hours shifts?

Love this i am a future public health nurse.

Jobs in the public sector generally don't pay that well; there's usually a good benefits and retirement package though.

I am studying public health but I don't have a passion for it, I am going into international development. Helping the poorest of the poor. I figured public health would intersect with development. I am more interested in community and rural development. How do you create impact in extremely poor and vulnerable communities? I will say that I find it interesting that this video is primarily US based only. I am sure public health is not just an american issue, and I would think it be even more important in countries that are far poorer than the US, with far more health risks.

A friend of mine has a sister with a masters degree in public health. she has been looking for a job for a while now. what suggestions do you have that can help her get a job ?

btw should have added that I truly enjoy my job.

Does this degree get you a well paying job?

wow

These people don't make me want to study this at all.

currently persuing this degree. This comment has me worried lbs!

After msc public health is good future is there....?

I work in public health but came to it late in my career path. My personal prejudice (and I use that word deliberately) is that there are too many people in public health who came there straight from school. Working for a few years in the public sector with a for-profit or non-profit healthcare organization and THEN getting your MPH is a better idea. Note I said personal prejudice! So take my advice with a grain of salt.

hippity hoppity sirboppity? definitely not the major for me.

Higher Education = only for the privileged

no offence but yawn not for me at all
