Previous recordings are provided below. A schedule of events will be provided in the fall. 

Cultivating Community & Belonging as First Generation and BIPOC Students

Our School recognizes the unique lived experiences of our students and aims to create space and opportunities for all members of our community to feel valued and supported. The Office of Inclusion, Diversity, Anti-Racism, and Equity (IDARE) invites you to join us to learn more about our efforts to cultivate a diverse and inclusive environment on campus and in our community. Each session will provide participants an opportunity to learn more about the initiatives and resources offered by the IDARE office, as well as insights into the experiences of current students who identify as BIPOC, first-generation and/or underrepresented or underserved minorities. All are welcome.

Ins and Outs of Public Health 

Hear from the Admissions about the exciting opportunities awaiting you here as well as the ins and outs of applying to public health graduate programs. You will also receive information about popular career options in the field and how our alumni network can help you in your decision. The Bloomberg School has a large number of academic offerings and we understand you may have questions regarding which direction to take or which program is right for you. If so, then this session is for you. We hope you’ll join us!

Master's Program Information Session

You've probably noticed that we offer nine—yes nine!—master's degrees in public health. And you may have wondered how they differ from one another and which one is right for you. This virtual session will explain the differences between our nine master's degrees. From duration of program, to program components, to special application requirements, we will cover it all. We understand how overwhelming it can be to research graduate school programs so we want to help you decide which Bloomberg School master's degree program is the best fit for you. Hope to "see" you there!

Careers in Public Health 

See where the Bloomberg School can take you. Learn from our Career Services Office about the programs and events sponsored by the office, career outcomes of graduates and how to make the most out of our public health degree programs. We hope you can participate!
