By choosing electives that align with their passions and career aspirations, students can deepen their knowledge in specific areas and gain a competitive edge in their chosen field of public health.
Practical Experiences
Practical experiences are an integral part of Lamar University’s MPH program, as they provide students with real-world exposure to public health practice. These experiences may include internships, field placements, or research projects.
During internships or field placements, students have the opportunity to apply their classroom knowledge in real-world settings, working alongside experienced public health professionals. These experiences allow students to gain practical skills, develop professional networks, and apply their theoretical knowledge to address public health challenges.
