Goals

I Priya Gupta, a Dentist by profession. I am currently pursuing MPH from Manipal University with specialization on Health Policy, in the next one year I see myself completing the MPH degree successfully with knowledge, capacities and skills of working in the team. I will be joining to any organization like government, non- government or any private in my district and working as policy maker to achieve specific health care goals within a society. I even want to work as a public health project manager along with the clinicians in different areas. Creating multidisciplinary teams to work together to deliver highest quality of care. I would like to carry public health specialist and dentistry together in reduction of dental caries among school going children and reducing the incidence of oral cancer among adults.
In the next three years I want to do research in the areas of my interest and would like at least 1 or 2 to be published. I always want to keep myself open, learning new things from my seniors as well as juniors. I would be working with WHO or UNICEF or international program development like organisation as a public health services administrator. My main focus will be on policy formation and analysis. I would carry my skills developed in the public health services administrator outside the clinical to different sectors and in either rural or urban communities. I would keep my career flexible, experiencing new things and developing my interest to have the opportunities to improve myself.
