"I applied to other schools in Florida and the University of Miami, but ultimately chose UM because of the variety of courses offered and the capstone opportunities excited me.”
—Yendi Fontenard
Students are encouraged to build their capstone field experience and program to apply classroom learning to a public health work environment with an impact on the community. Doing research and participating in programs in foreign countries through our Capstone Field Experience supports our students’ academic and professional interests as they advance in their careers as public health professionals. The University of Miami's Department of Public Health Sciences provide students with a wide and exciting range of opportunities to prevent disease and promote the health of populations worldwide.
We have partnerships and connections to facilitate your placement – next door or across the world. Your opportunities are endless!
