I'm looking for a student perspective on the U-M Health Management and Policy program...but any insight into the public health school in general would be helpful (if you're from a diff dept) Here's a few questions I have right now:
1. What's your general impression of the students in the program? Do you end up knowing almost all your classmates by the end of the 2 years? Are people friendly and willing to work together? Or very competitive?
2. What's your general impression of the faculty? Are they willing to involve MPH students in their research or is this mostly set aside for PhDs? How available are research opportunities? Have you been able to get to know any faculty members (i.e. as a mentor) beyond just them being your instructor?
3. Do you feel like you're well supported by the department/career services in finding internships and job placements?
4. Any regrets/complaints about choosing U-M? Anything you would've done differently in the program?
Also, other suggestions/advice/random facts are welcome too!
