MPH- University of Pittsburgh

<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I was accepted into the MPH Community and Behavioral Sciences Program at the University of Pittsburgh today. This is the first school I've heard back from and I'm very excited.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any input about this MPH program? How "well-respected" it is? Is it one of the "better programs"?</p>

<p>I'm interested in community-based research focusing on minority health issues. I would like to have a great deal of field work experience and engaging with communities during my MA education.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Did you apply for Fall 2012? I am applying there too! </p>

<p>Seems like a solid program according to US News, but I don’t know how much that means:</p>

<p>I did apply for Fall 2012, Behavioral and Community Health Sciences. What track did you apply to? good luck!</p>

<p>I’ve heard good things about the school. It’s a very well respected program especially in research.</p>
