Issue 11: Fall 2023

As we welcome a new year, there are so many celebrations and accomplishments the MPH 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 Fall of 2023. Students were able to engage in activities with community partners as well as partake in several community outreach and volunteer events. This bulletin reflects a few stories of collaboration, alumni success, program updates, outstanding faculty 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 had a wonderful and safe holiday season and a Happy New Year!
