Hi SDN! I'm at a crossroads.
I attend a large public university and am studying global health (with a certificate in women's studies). I want to get an MPH starting September 2016, with a concentration in maternal and child health.
I have all my major and certificate requirements done, and I could graduate now. If I do that, I have a job offer teaching English in Japan to small children.
But I'm also registered for classes that are PH-related for the fall, including a grad course in global health epidemiology, a law school course in health law, and a class on politics of women's health. I wonder if these classes could give me a competitive advantage when I apply to MPH programs.
Which choice would look better on my graduate application: Working in Japan for one year, or taking an extra semester of public health-related classes?
Thanks in advance for your replies
