Career outcome for professional graduate program students

What happens after your professional Master's degree?

One year after our professional Master's students graduate, the Faculty of Health conducts a survey to find out where our alumni end up being employed. This is completed annually. Learn more about the post-graduate careers of our Master of Health Evaluation (MHE), Master of Health Informatics (MHI), and Master of Public Health (MPH) students.

Testimonials

This program has upgraded my knowledge and skills, making me more employable for the public health labour market.

Alumni survey participant, Spring 2018

I really enjoyed the program in the sense that I grew academically, professionally, and personally.

MPH alumni survey participant, Spring 2021

I have been able to move away from my first career (which was neither satisfying nor successful) and am moving toward the work I want to do as a result of this program.
