Public Health Student Group at Steinhardt

What is it?

In September of 2006 the Public Health Student Group at Steinhardt (PHSG) was formed to create a sense of community and solidarity within the growing MPH program. PHSG seeks to develop professional skills, leadership skills and provide networking opportunities for Steinhardt's public health students. It is our hope that students in the public health program will use PHSG to be more active and hands-on in their graduate experience at NYU.

The PHSG consists of three committees: the Communications and Media Committee, Mentorship Committee and the Social Committee. The Communications and Media Committee works to maintain the connection between the Public Health Student Group and other organizations within or beyond NYU. The Mentorship Committee works to connect students with faculty, other students and other community leaders that offer insight to public health issues. The Social Committee works to bring students together outside of the classroom to strengthen a sense of community and provide networking opportunities as well.

How Do I Get Involved?

The Public Health Student Group (PHSG) is a great way to be an active player in your graduate experience. For instance, volunteers who work on the Community Public Health (CPH) newsletter get to see what peers and faculty members are up to, while keeping the rest of us informed. The CPH newsletter is just one way to get involved -- come find out more at our meetings:
