Career & Internship Fairs.

Handshake

 

BUSPH fairs are typically held during the spring semester, in both virtual and in-person formats, with companies hiring from across the nation. Connect with public health employers across a range of industries recruiting for jobs, practicums, internships, and fellowships.

Our in-person fair is open to on-campus masters and doctoral SPH students, dual degree candidates, and recent SPH graduates. Online MPH students are welcome to join us for the virtual career fair.
