Health Equity Scholars Program

Health equity to me means that everyone across this nation and the many others have fair access to be as healthy as possible in every aspect (mental, physical, occupational, and environmental health etc.) regardless of education, income level, sexual orientation, race, or geographic. Fair is the key word not equal!

I plan to use my biomedical engineering background in correlation with Public Health to help reduce some of the environmental and occupational health exposures that affect low wage workers and their families. I hope to be an Industrial Hygienist.
