1 SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY Careers in Public Health Department of Public Health, Food Studies and Nutrition
2 Degree considerations for students in public health The Falk College s Department of Public Health, Food Studies and Nutrition at Syracuse University offers a bachelor of science in public health (BSPH). The public health program includes a 46-credit liberal arts core, a 45-credit public health core, and a 32-credit elective requirement. The public health core includes key public health concepts such as environmental health, epidemiology, health systems administration, and social and behavioral determinants of health as well as those specific to community health education, a sub-field within public health. The generous number of electives facilitates completion of a minor or a second major. In addition, the program s flexibility enables students to study abroad. When considering a career path in public health fields, the following information is helpful: A bachelor s degree is sufficient for entry-level positions. Advanced degrees allow people to specialize in various public health fields. The master s in public health (MPH) is a professional public health degree. The master s in science in public health (MSPH) is an academic public health degree. Falk College public health students gain valuable hands-on experience through courses, service learning, and research projects working closely with faculty members. Steve Sartori/Syracuse University
3 Steve Sartori/Syracuse University Steve Sartori/Syracuse University As part of the public health major, with input and guidance from faculty, each student designs an individual nine-credit senior internship and capstone project. This capstone project opportunity involves students in data collection for an NIH-funded study examining the effects of lead and PCB exposure on children s health. Other advanced degrees suit the range of fields that public health touches: master s in health communication, master s in community health education, master s in behavioral health, master s in health administration (MHA), or master s in public administration (MPA). Other relevant graduate work can be pursued in law, political science, anthropology, or sociology. Some students seeking a clinical health career choose public health, rather than biology, for their undergraduate major before applying to graduate-level clinical health programs. The bachelor s in public health can provide students with a pathway to advanced studies in medicine, dentistry, nursing or physician assistant studies if electives are used to fulfill the additional admissions requirements for these advanced degree programs. A Ph.D. is required for college teaching and advanced research positions. Upon completion of the BSPH program, students are eligible to sit for the national Community Health Education Specialist (CHES) examination. Certification as a Community Health Education Specialist, while voluntary, often provides advantages when seeking employment.
4 Dennis Nett/The Post STAndard One community-wide project Syracuse University public health students may be involved with through coursework or service learning is the Genesis Health Project, which uses cultural leveraging to improve the health of African American families through educational programming. Exploring careers in public health The Falk College s bachelor of science degree in public health prepares students for health-related careers in government and private and nonprofit organizations that address health promotion and illness prevention in individuals, families and communities. Field-based learning opportunities are an integral requirement of the public health curriculum. Public health students complete a total of 480 hours of field work engaged in health promotion, designing and implementing health education, understanding diversity and improving health literacy. These experiences culminate with HTW 422 Senior-Year Capstone Internship Experience. These purposeful opportunities provide students valuable hands-on experience that translates well into future professional roles in public health. In addition, many public health students engage in summer internship experiences to further their skills in public health practice or research. Faculty and staff advisors have deep connections in the public health field, which translates into tremendous networking connections locally and nationally for students. Currently, the public health program has a list of more than 120 internship sites in its database for students to consider.
