Hey fellow medical students,
I'm quite interested in getting an MPH (not exactly sure what concentration, but I have an idea), and have a few questions for the community.
1) Should I get an MPH during medical school or after?
2) Should I get the MPH from a top tier institution after I finish my medical education? Will that help more than getting the degree from a no-name public health school (no offense)
I have good experience working abroad and some in the states with the CDC, so this is definitely something that I want to tailor into my career goals. If anyone has experience going down this route or knows about it, please let me know!
Thanks
