So... I was lucky enough to be accepted to all four programs for global health!! I am super excited, but i am now in a bind in terms of deciding which one to attend.
It seems that Hopkins has the best program set up for a one year MPH.
Pro: it is almost a full year, and on the quarter system so you can fit the most into one year.
Con: It is the most expensive, and I am not all that excited about Baltimore
Harvard
Pro: It has the harvard humanitarian initiative which provides a cutting edge exposure to humanitarian aid research.
con: semester, very policy based, and not as friendly to masters students
Emory
Pro: great school with CDC next door, cheaper cost of living
Con: also very expensive, and it isn't the top name in the field
UNC
Pro: awesome location and great reputation
Con: not known for its global health program.
What do you guys think? Which is the best for global health (particularly in humanitarian aid research)?
