Goals

As a second semester student of Masters of Public health, in one-year period as I finish my course, I see myself well versed with the concepts of Public Health. This not just involves theoretical knowledge but also practical applications of all my learning from the University. My specialization during the course is Epidemiology and in one-year time frame as I graduate, I see myself applying all the tools and techniques learned during the course on field. I aim to become a dedicated Epidemiologist, who’ll be able to comprehend the given tasks and responsibilities and be able to provide meaningful insights during the course of its completion.
As a long-term goal, I see myself as a Public Health Professional with a career in community participation and engagement and be a part of Public or Private agencies. I see myself as an effective team player, participating, collaborating, planning and implementing various health programs involving stakeholders from various walks of life. My key interests lie in assessing the social determinants of Non-Communicable Diseases in particular, and to be able to address the risk factors and come up with innovative ideas and technology for early detection of the same. Even though my specialization is Epidemiology, in future I would also want to practice Public health policy that will include resource allocation and political visions. As a public health professional, I also would focus on existing health inequalities especially aimed at empowering those belonging to the weak or disadvantaged groups.
