I actually went into this to expand on my primary research topics, and be able to create program recommendations that could actually be implemented. I wanted to go into academia as a professor, but the Big Fuckass Bill kinda ruined my plans. Can’t exactly go get a PhD when half the programs are getting cut due to lack of funding.
I would’ve still done public health, but I think I wouldn’t have tried to be a full time student. But for what’s next? I’m pretty sure I’m gonna try to stay in research as an RA, and try to just get general work experience before I can head back for a doctorates. Are you in grad school rn?
It really just depends on what you want to go into. Masters is basically you going into a niche. Like for me? I went from Psych Sciences to MPH because my research interest is Maternal Mental Healthcare. MPH helps me fit my research niche, and gives me the tools to do policy-effective research+program planning/eval. So I can’t really tell u what program would be good for u
