After a BS in Biopsychology and 2 + working in healthcare, my interests have began shifting in the direction of public health. Specifically the fields of toxicology, environmental health, and health ed have really caught my attention. I have been doing a fair amount of online research, but this forum is the first time I have heard of EH as a separate degree. And I obviously have additional questions....
~First, What are your opinions on the pros/cons of choosing an EH degree over an MPH with an emphasis in toxicology or EH? I have also considered epidemiology, but I know from experience that I would not be content doing data analysis/stats/lab work.
~Based on my career interests, is there another emphasis I may want to look into?
~What are the compared job outlooks for the two fields (EH as compared to PH) I feel like I have spent time putting my feelers out into the environmental health/ toxicology fields, and have come up with very little!
Every little bit will help, I look forward to your responses!!
