Student Spotlight Post
I wanted a part-time job while I am in school where I’m getting hands-on public health experience and applying the knowledge I gain through my program. As a Chronic Disease Epidemiology major, HPV IMPACT was a great fit for me as it catered to my interest in infections that can lead to chronic conditions over time. I was also interested in the opportunity to work under an epidemiologist to learn more about disease surveillance and how findings are used to inform public health decision-making.
I was drawn in by the idea of doing surveillance work. My interest in public health and in epi is to better understand how different diseases impact people differently, and seeing how the different projects at the EIP work at some capacity to observe and record this, I felt like this was a place I wanted to work at.
I was intrigued by the opportunity to do some applied epidemiology surveillance work as a public health student. I wanted to apply what I had learned in the classroom to the real-life public health field. I am also interested in food related public health topics, so FoodCORE was the perfect place for me.
