A Personal Statement Of Purpose For The Public Health Club

249 Words1 Page

The Public Health club has a lot of potential beyond what it has already produced. My vision for the club is that we embrace all majors, and make public health applicable to various interests and studies. Public Health is massive field that covers every aspect of our daily lives, and I want others to understand that. In achieving this, I hope to bring about education on various careers that utilize public health that many wouldn’t think do. I hope to encourage that all students no matter what their future goals are to join and learn about public health. One idea is to include Career of the Month which can be broadcasted on our social media, and then have a professional visit the club. This I feel will help prepare the future UCSD graduates
