Issue 10: Spring 2023
As we say goodbye to spring and hello to summer, there are so many celebrations and accomplishments the MPH Program would like to highlight in this issue. We will take a look at some of achievements the Master of Public Health came across during the Spring of 2023. Students were able to engage in person activities with community partners as well as partake in several community outreach events such as serving locally with the Austin Hatcher Foundation and internationally in San Salvador, Bahamas and Costa Rica. This bulletin reflects a few stories of collaboration, alumni success, program updates, faculty spotlights and helpful resources for UTC students and graduates. We would like to take a moment to thank all of our wonderful community partners, faculty, staff, alumni and students for all of the tremendous and hard-work dedicated to the MPH Program. We hope everyone has a wonderful and safe summer!
