“ I had an overwhelmingly positive experience studying for my PhD in epidemiology at MUSC DPHS. I received strong statistical training for an epidemiologist, which has already been an advantage for me in subsequent career steps. There were many resources and opportunities to research and practice public health within MUSC and local communities alike. ”

“ The MUSC DPHS faculty and students foster a collaborative community that inspires the next generation of public health researchers and practitioners. Not a day goes by that I do not learn something new in this program, whether from a faculty member or peer. ”

“ I was very interested in clinical trials and the DCU seemed like the perfect fit for pursuing a career as a clinical trial biostatistician. ”

Berlene Shipes, PhD

“ Our classmates all had diverse backgrounds ranging from medical fellows, some right out of undergrad, and some that have been working in public health for years. The professors genuinely wanted us to learn and made sure that we understood the material. ”
