Michigan Public Health students come from a variety of backgrounds, but all are driven by a collective mission to help people and improve overall public health. Michigan Public Health students are innovators and collaborators; they come to Michigan knowing the School of Public Health provides its students with the knowledge and training that will allow them to make a real impact.

Students like Dr. Robert Davidson want to create positive change with their Master of Public Health degree. He says “I would like to positively impact the health of larger populations of people compared with the one-on-one role I have played throughout my medical career. I want to build a foundation of public health over the next two years [in this master’s program] to make me a better advocate for policies that improve the health of populations.”

Current students in the online MPH and MS degree programs have been excited to share their motivations to pursue graduate work with Michigan Public Health. Many also note the ways in which they’ve already seen benefits in their careers and personal life as they move through their coursework. If you’ve ever considered earning your degree in public health, you might find that their stories are not that different from your own.
