Creating Your Future
"The best way to predict the future is to create it."
"Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today."
"The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power."
"What is coming is better than what is gone."
The reason you are starting a graduate program is that you want something better than what presently is.
What does your future look like? What do you want it to look like? The MPH Program in Health Policy and Management will give you the tools to be the architect of your own future and a leader in health.
