Why choose the UA / What’s awesome about the UA:
I chose MEZCOPH because I enjoyed the initial prerequisite/Gen Eds that MEZCOPH offers: HPS 187 and HPS 200. Both classes persuaded me to change my major from business management to public health. Additionally, the MEZCOPH advising team has been extremely helpful the past few years in my undergraduate career, and do an excellent job at recommending event/scholarship/scholarship resources.
Why did you choose public health?
As I quote my time at MEZCOPH, I am proud of the progress I have made with community outreach. I would recommend MEZCOPH to anyone who is interested in doing health promotion, community outreach, and learn more about health policy. I have learned that MEZCOPH has a variety of courses, internship opportunities, and research program for almost any and all relative health topics today.
