Public Health & Medicine Career Pathway
The Public Health & Medicine Pathway helps students prepare for careers as doctors, nurses, epidemiologists, public health educators, environmental health specialists, health policy analysts, health researchers and analysts, global health specialists, and more. Because the St. John’s science curriculum trains Johnnies to have open minds and a strong practice of inquiry, Johnnies in health excel at listening to patients, embracing complexity, and finding answers that often elude others.
