What is Epidemiology? Advice for MPH students | Qualifications, Expectations & $100,000+ Salary!
In this video, I will be discussing what epidemiology is. Epidemiology is the branch of medicine which deals with the incidence, distribution, and possible control of diseases and other factors relating to health. There are many definitions but I like to say it's the study of disease frequency and we use that data to make informed healthcare and medical decision for the general public. COVID-19 is a prime example.
check on the CDC's page on epidemiology: www.cdc.gov/careerpaths/k12te...
Advanced degrees are preferred in this profession but it's not impossible with bachelor's degree with the right major. Check out this job for example www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/ep...

Iâm actually pursing my MPH in Epidemiology this fall. This video was very helpful and informative! Thank youđ
Hey I want to start in spring. May I ask where are you studying?
Thank you for this video it's helpful for me and I choose mph in epidemiology for spring intake Memphis university
Me too
Thanks đ so much for your knowledge and Time to share : explain this responsibility
I love this video! Iâm still in high school, but Iâve always had a guilty pleasure in learning about infectious diseases and the like and I think Epidemiology is the way to go for me. This just helped me guide my way a bit!! Thank you!
Thank you for your help! Your video was super concise and straight to the point, really appreciate your work here!
First time coming across your channel, and Iâm here to stay, I just love the way you explained this epidemiology.
simple, yet detailed, love this girl , GOOD CONTENT
I absolutely LOVE your videos. Youâre the most direct and intelligent woman Iâve ever listened to on CZcams thatâs actually excited about everything you explain. Youâre such an inspiration.
I changed my MA major from regularly affairs to clinical research đŹ because Iâm very interested in epidemiology-however-I got a B in statistics and am intimidated by bio stats & epidemiology courses. You said donât be scared⊠I trust you!
I'm a public health science 4th year student at a UC in Cali and I am leaning towards doing an MPH in Epidemiology. Thanks for this video!!!
im in grade 11 and like calculations and learing about the patterns of viruses and desease so thanx for the information it helped alot to understand my career choise of EPIDEMIOLOGY â
Just subscribed after watching my first video on your channel. This was extremely helpful! Thank you for the encouragement and I hope everything you are pursuing turns out wonderful!!!
Thank you so much!! I was trying to decide between two masters programs depending on what I can do with it and you sealed my decision! Thank you!
Thank you for making this video.
thank you so much for this so helpful !
Just started my MSc in public health and this has been informative
Thank you!! Very helpful
I absolutely loved this video as I'm about to start my degree in the field. Thank you, this video was very informative.
So great your description
I really loved this video. Mainly because I have been a bit torn in the direction I want to take with My MPH. Currently focusing on Health Promotion, but found epidemiology fascinating. I am currently finishing a certificate in IPAC, I know it is spring board from epidemiology but this video provided the reassurance I needed and interest in go the route of epidemiology. I am entering my 2yr MPH but my school would not allow me to change the minor and I may have to consider a grad certificate in Epidemiology to get all the skills I need for the field. I am realizing that most jobs wants the MPH focused on Epidemiology especially in an entry level position.
Thank you for this đđż
Really helpful video. Thanks
If you are in Regulatory Affairs or perhaps in Pharmacovigilance, having some background in epidemiology and/or biostats also really helps. As an RA lead, I need to understand as much as possible about the things the health authorities are asking and our responses to those questions. Being able to talk the same language really helps. No need to be the expert, but I highly recommend taking a class or two just to get the basics.
Great video!
Hi! Thanks a lot for the information! Today I met the national subsecretary for health promotion in Mexico and he left me thinking about leaning my career towards epidemiology, since he pursued a postdoctorate at Johns Hopkins. Think I will follow his piece of adviceđ
Watching from Kenya. Thank you so much. I'm now well informed and soon I will be enrolling for mphE
Beautiful submission you have made here
Had enjoyed this video.. It gave me an insight, cause am doing a research on my career progression from where I am right now in the health sector. Great work đ
Hey đ, Kyyah
I hope you are doing well,
I would like to thank you for these kind of videos you make, its so helpful and motivational too.
May God bless you, if you don't mind I would ask you to make more videos on mph public health..etc
Kind regards from Saudi Arabia đžđŠ
Iâm on my career path to Epidemiology. Very excited about itđđ
Thank you for sharing your experience. I like it
Thank you so much for this video. It was very informative and it strengthened my decision to get an MPH in epidemiologyâ€â€
Good Job! as a Physiotherapist i really liked your video
Love love your video
Subscribed you have an ammmaazinggg level of energy
More power to yo girl đââïžđââïž
Thank you so much for this video! This is so helpful. I will definitely look into your book - Iâm a recent college grad looking for direction! Iâm thinking about an MPH and going into epidemics. I have a health management degree with a few social science/hard science/public health courses but really no public health/epidemiology experience. I have a couple questions for you (I hope these werenât answered in other vids).
1. Do you have any advice for MPH applicants without public health experience?
2. Iâm looking at some general MPH programs without epidemiology concentrations. Do you know if there is a way to enter the field without an epidemiology concentration?
Thank you very much for the video it was so helpful since I want to pursue a career in epidemiologyâ€
Very helpful thank you
Really loved the video!!! could you make a video on Pharmacoepidemiology too? Coming from a Pharmaceutical background, I am interested in this as well.
Stumbling upon this video is my best part of todayđđ»đđ»đđ»
So Iâm currently in my home country, final year, Iâve taken some epidemiology courses in my undergraduate program and would love to do my masters program in MPH upon graduation , Iâll be visiting this space a lot!!!đđđ»đđ»đđ»
Thanks for all the information
Hi Kyyah,
Great video! It makes a really clear introduction of Epi job market.đ
Iâm studying MSc in Epi and also self-learning more SAS and R more deeply, since same as you, Iâm a person who really love math and logical thinking.
Iâm just wondering if thereâs any kind of job in pharma is suitable for Epi students who want to strengthen data analysis skills?
I am afraid that pharma employers are more likely to choose students major in biostatsđ
Thanks so much for reading my question.đ
@@kyabdul, Oh, thank you so much! Yes, I will definitely look for more HEOR or RWE jobs! And thank you for your links!
Thank you for your video it was very informative. I am in society since the class and we are in week 5. We are reading in Mindedge and this week's class is learning about epidemiology.
From a social science perspective, how is epidemiology fit into social science?
I would love a video with your perspective on R&D
This was very helpful. As far as being a teacher, one of the best teachers I ever had was...a researcher! He didn't want to teach, he was filling in. But he was at the forefront of his field and we students begged him to stay and teach because he was showing us all new stuff, very exciting. We were so sad when our "regular" teacher (dull) came back. So...think about it!
@@kyabdul Yes because you lay things out clearly in a way that is easily understood and you also seem to enjoy sharing things that you have learned and are interested in yourself. Knowledge is vital but so is enthusiasm and you have both. (I am a flight instructor so I know these things matter.)
@@kyabdul You are very welcome!
Dang girl!!!! I love your home decorâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžđ©đ
@@kyabdul I so wish I would have come across your video during my early makeover stages of my living room. How ever, my next project is my bedroom. Do you mind sharing where you got the photo of the lady on your wall? (If itâs not a personal photo)âŠ.looking at it again though it kinda looks like you..đ LOL.
@@kyabdul awesome thank you love â€ïž
Hi, I love your videos. I am currently an undergrad in Biology. Can you please talk about Biostatistics as well, I couldn't find it on your channel. I'm a bit stuck between epi and biostat because I want to have a possibility to wfh, as I am a big family oriented person.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences!!
I just found your channel and am thinking of going for an MPH in Epidemiology. I like using programs like R and whatnot so using SAS really peaked my interest. The thing is Iâm stuck between that and an MPH in Industrial Hygiene because I have more relevant experience in it. Iâm trying to compare the ability to break into the field and opportunities of progression between the two. If you have any information on the Industrial Hygiene Iâd greatly appreciate it.
Please do not confused Msc Epedimiology and MPH or MSc public health Epedimiology option
Iâm joining for MPH in epidemiology this fall in the US. Being an international student, I would like to know do hospitals or organisations recruit international students for their job positions.
Youâre freaking awesome, I love to see black people our age getting into the health field
Spss has become easier the more I use it, just finished a class where we had to use it. In all, Iâm enjoying doing my doctorate in public health.
Yay! Im so happy for you. Im also happy to hear Spss is no longer a nightmare. I was stresssedd in grad school
@@kyabdul can you please do global health?
Can you do a video on health communications please? Thanks!
13 years and I have finally decided what I want to become
I LOVE YOU VIDEO , quick question do you need to have a strong Public Health Background. I have a BS in community Health and i want to concentrate on Epidemiology. Im scared about biostats because i`m not good at math.
Just curious, what are your thoughts on MHA in comparison to MPH and which path is more versatile
Would getting bachelors In healthcare Administration lessen my chances of getting into Masters in Public Health (focus on epidemiology)? I like to have options :)
Thank you for your time, your video was very informative
Hiđ
I am currently almost turning a 1yr old as a public health nurse - my first nursing job that I'm currently working at is a COVID clinic. Because of this experience in being at front line of COVID. I became passionate about becoming a nurse epidemiologist...However before I apply for an MS in ph/epi I want to gain as much experience....are you aware of any ways I could do that? Im stuck on where I should start.
hey!! since you live in LA..can you tell me about rental costs?!. and jobs i can take to pay for it ? i am applying for Epi/Bio at Berkeley and i am concerned about the living expenses. btw FRICKIN LOVE YOUR ENERGY
Great video, but Iâm I have a question for you. Can epidemiologists work in the course of treatment and making vaccines??
I started my MPH in Epi a month after you posted this, and I wish I would have seen it then. I have to say, I am better at the equations than I am at stats. I am halfway through the MPH now, thinking about changing my concentration and starting a new concentration during the fall.
@@Sabagat did you change your concentration
@@maame_5533 I did not. Just added another one. Made it dual concentration.
are u struggling with the Sas ? that is why you want to change your concentration?
@@Sabagat .
@@layekharagne2224 more with biostatistics and interpretations than SAS itself.
Is it possible to combine a public health degree with data science. How does the two relate to each other. Would you mind talking about this on your channel. Thank you
Hi,Its a great short and sweet but informative vedio.
May I know that Is it possible be a biostatistician after following the MPH epidemiology
Thank you so much for the video was really educative please can you do a video on community public health i wish a persue a Master's degree in it .
@I have a bachelor's degree in health education, can I still pursue a masters in public health, specifically epidemiology?
This video was very enlightening. I am actually pursuing my master's in Epidemiology Fall 2025. One question I have for you is what type of entry level job should I do untiI I get my master's (how to get my foot in the door)?
I currently graduated with an honors degree in public health, and I didnt know if I should do a master's degree in ph or or I should specialize.... I am very much thankful....
Superb video madam.. i am planing to do MPH in UK... how about the scope of MPH in uk?
Can you do a video about MPH of Infectious Diseases and Vaccinology? I'm debating between IDV and Epi and I wanna know job opportunities/salary and compare the 2.
Following.
Does holding a degree in MPH give you room to pivot like if I get the degree with a concentration in epidemiology. Can I pivot to health behavior and promotion? Do i need to know what to specialize in before applying for MPH programs?
Thank you so much for the video, it was really helpful. I am biochemistry graduate with an interest in Public health for masters, can I go for it

Hi
To have a job as a epidemiologist
do you need a degree in epidemiology?
Can you enter the field through another major such as community health?
Can you do a video on Health economics plssss
Do you have to be certified to work in public health? Do you need to attend a CEPH accredited college?
Will a background in CLS/ MLS help? Thinking about getting my MPH- Epidemiology
Hi, any video for dual degree, how can people Leaverage MBA +MPH (epidem ) and job opportunities?
Can I have a one-on-one with you? I am currently taking Epi and Bio stats. at HU
Do you recommend any helpful SAS workshops or practice opportunities?
do u know sas workshops ?
Is there any regulatory body for epidemiology?
Or any licence exam?
Can you work directly from your graduation.?
Do you know of any scholarships out there for students who want to pursue a graduate degree?
Do you have a book on the same topic?
Could I get a job as an epidemiologist, if my MPH is focused on Climate Health or Social and Behavioral health?
How is the job market for epidemiology? Is it difficult to find employment right after completing Masterâs? The growth rate of epidemiology is only around 5% according to BLS.
5% is about average compared to all other occupations according to BLS, so the growth rate isnât high compared to the average, but the good thing is that itâs growing and not declining. And like career savage said, itâs not something a lot of people want to do, so it makes it easier for those who do to find a job (assuming there is demand for it).
@@vvieites001 I have a Master's in Public health specialized in epidemiology and biostatistics what chances do I have to work in the uk am from zambia.

Hey. Can anyone explain if Epi is a subset under public health? Or you can pursue a masters just on Epi? If so, which is more adviceable? Epi or Public Health?
Looking for the same information?
following
@@chidozibanayi4954 Hey. Epi IS a subset of Public Health. Same with biostatistics. However you can chose to study public health with a specialty in Epi, Biostatistics or both. It is not rare for some schools offer that option. Note that an MPH itself does not qualify you for a STEM OPT extension like the others do, so have that in mind if youâre an international student.
