EUGENE, Ore., Nov. 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- College Choice, a leading authority in college and university rankings and resources, has published its 2016 ranking for the Best Bachelor's Degrees in Public Health. http://www.collegechoice.net/rankings/public-health-degrees/
Public health careers are expected to grow faster than other occupations nationwide, and the media income for these jobs often exceeds the national average. And while the career paths are numerous, undergraduate degrees in public health and related fields are relatively few, but they are growing in popularity.
"Graduates of public health, epidemiology, biostatistics, and other fields can end up in careers as varied as data analysis, medical administration, and policymaking," Christian Amondson, Managing Editor of College Choice, said of the ranking. "It's easy to see why we are seeing an increase in undergraduate public health degrees, certificate programs, minors, and co-majors."
