Meet alumnus, Jordan Queen, who currently works at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. He is a Foodborne, Enteric and Waterborne Disease Epidemiologist and is an MPH Epidemiology Candidate at the Emory Rollins School of Public Health.

"I began my undergraduate coursework in the fall of 2016. At that time my general interests were biology and human health. During the summer before my junior year, I discovered the public health major. I was unfamiliar with the field of public health, but the idea of working at the population level to improve human health was enticing. Fast forward to graduation, I completed a B.S. in Public Health, a B.S. in Biology, and a Chemistry minor. The public health professors and faculty were excellent throughout my time in the program and each public health course was engaging and contained content that translated into real-life context.

If you are on the fence about whether or not public health is right for you, I urge you to connect with the public health advisors, faculty + professors, and/or alumni early on in your undergraduate career. Having started the public health coursework later on I missed the opportunity to explore the 5-year CSPH/UCD MPH program. If you are currently, or soon to be enrolled in the public health program I strongly suggest exploring the various clubs/internships/volunteering opportunities that are offered to UCD students. Each offers a unique opportunity to grow as a student and future public health practitioner. Immerse yourself in the core courses and seek out electives that interest and challenge you. Introduction to Public Health and Organic Chemistry II were hands down my favorite major required courses."

PBHL Info session

Thank you to the students who attended the event on Wednesday. We had some great presentations by HBS faculty and PBHL Advisors about the PBHL Major, 5-year B.A./B.S. to MPH Program, Advising, and Internship Opportunities for students at CU Denver. We also wanted to say special thanks to current PBHL major, Ruth Mekonnen for sharing her experiences with her fellow peers. What a lovely, community-building event!
