Career outcome for professional graduate program students

What happens after you graduate?

One year after our master's and doctoral students graduate, the Faculty of Health conducts a survey. These surveys are essential tools for gathering valuable insights and data from our alumni about their career journeys. Through these surveys, we also assess their preparedness and confidence in entering their chosen fields. As the University of Waterloo, the insights gained from these surveys help us tailor our programs and resources more effectively, ensuring that our graduates are well-equipped to succeed in their professional endeavors.

Testimonials

I thoroughly enjoyed the MHE Program, finding it both highly relevant and applicable to my work experience. It provided me with valuable skills and a solid foundation in program evaluation.

Overall, the program was incredibly useful, especially courses like Foundations of Program Evaluation and Theory and Applications in Program Evaluation. These foundational courses introduced me to the creation of logic models and emphasized the importance of measuring program effectiveness and performance.
