"The IWRM M.Sc. non-thesis program allowed me to focus in on water instead of being an environmental generalist, and move beyond environmental consulting. I’d like to work either for a muncipality or do applied research."

"My program provided a strong foundation in public health and food industry. I worked in food manufacturing for about 4 years before making my career shift to public health. I aspire to be involved in public health initiatives that affect policies to help under-privileged and under- represented communities."
