Holly’s Answer

Public health gives you an overall view and techniques to work with large sets of data. Public health degrees are really essential at the county/state level as youre not just providing services for just a small population, youre averaging anywhere from several hundred up to a million at the state level. Public health degrees are the degrees people have that study epidemiology and work with disease prevention on a large scale.

Sindhu’s Answer

Ceclina, if you are interested in health careers that are non-clinical, in healthcare consulting, we often interview and hire candidates with a public health degree/background.
Thank you comment icon I am interested in pursuing a clinical career, but I appreciate your feedback Ms. Kutty. Thank you! Ceclina
