<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I posted this in the graduate forum but it seems to not be getting any answers, im trying here to see if I can get some feedback.</p>

<p>Right now, im pretty sure I want to pursue a career in the public health sector. I wanted to do epidemiology but I realized its more on the quantitive side of establishing risk factors and prevention of diseases. I want to focus more on the biological aspect.</p>

<p>Problem is, other than GWU, I cant find a Masters program (not post doctorate) that is within the field of micro/immune/vir-ology with specialization of infectious diseases. I came across the program in GWU because my cousin is doing the exact program I want to pursure (The actual name is a Masters in Public Health Microbiology with Emerging infectious diseases) But I want to look at other schools just incase my chances of getting into GWU are slim. But still up to now I havent found any. I saw Georgetown but the only thing similar they have is bioterrorism prevention or something ike that which seems to narrow for my tastes</p>

<p>It seems that there are many broad terms for this sort of degree, its not a plain black and white title that is easy to find such as "economics" and I either end up having to look at both departments of medicine and public health and its starting to become a hassle, but I guess im really not looking hard enough.</p>

<p>So my question, does anyone know of any other programs that line in with the subjects I listed above?</p>
