San Francisco State University Reviews of Master's in Public Health

"Great school to go for Graduate school. he Public Health program focuses on inequity and social justice."

"The cohort structure of my Masters of Public Health program at San Francisco State was absolutely wonderful. I learned and grew with a group of motivated and social justice minded people. I learned so much from rich classroom discussion in the program and the practical projects we did. Some course that particularly shaped my education and career path were the Theories, Community Assessment, and Program Planning oourses that I took. I think the program prepared me with skills that I can use in a public health position. A drawback of the program is the cost; it is difficult to attend graduate school and live in such an expensive city without incurring loans or having to deal with other financial struggles. I would also have like to see the program put a little more emphasis on building our resume and carrer/ job matching in the final semester."

"The Masters of Public Health program with an emphasis in Community Health Education at San Francisco State is a great program to get involved in. With small class sizes and a supportive staff, this program will really help you understand the global issues effecting the up and coming young generations. Overall, the program is a great experience and an important program for anyone interested in getting involved in a growing health and wellness industry."

"Social justice focus is central to this program, which a lot of programs cannot say. That said, it is a state school and resources are very limited. It is a program for working people, which means that classes are scheduled around work schedules for the most part, but it also means somewhat less is taught. It's a give and take. The professors have their hearts in it, for the most part, and the staff really tries to do what they can with what they have."

"The MPH program at San Francisco State University is a great fit for me. The Professors and class discussions are engaging and I feel very supported by everyone."
