Careers, Graduate and Professional School, and Alumni
Professor Thuy Lam
HSSP graduates pursue a range of career paths. Upon graduating, many HSSP students take different health-related routes:
- Enter graduate and professional schools for health‐related professions and occupations, including medicine, nursing, medical social work, podiatry, physical therapy, and others.
- Seek careers in public health and public policy related to health and health care, often ultimately pursuing further education in public health, law, government, business, and public policy.
- Embark on careers in health‐oriented research, often beginning with entry-level positions and sometimes seeking advanced academic degrees.
- Work in health‐related domestic or international public sector agencies or NGOs, or become involved with health-services or health-advocacy organizations, both domestic and international.
