“changing from a clinical doctor to a public health person and from Beijing to Hong Kong are two biggest challenges. I did it successfully with the help of SPHPC. It broadened my visions, excited my spirits and made me wiser in career. SPHPC is a wonderful platform. I have made many kind friends and learnt much from them. With the MPH, I have been employed in a satisfied position and reward. It’s a great improvement for my life and my career life.”

Senior Health Coordinator, International and Relief Service, Hong Kong Red Cross
“With the MPH qualification, I successfully moved my career from a frontline pharmacist to a public health coordinator and was able to handle various global health projects. The course provided us with top quality academic staff, updated course materials, strong practicality and many professors are public health leaders from Hong Kong and overseas countries. Without the MPH, I would have never been able to gain such a meaningful task in my career with the required public health perspectives.”

Student of Occupational Therapy, Washington University in St. Louis, USA

At the SPHPC I was able to establish a strong foundation in public health that has expanded my horizons and encouraged me to be ambitious with future research and career endeavors. Learning about public health issues and solutions from leaders in the field that have been instrumental in developing and implementing important health promotion interventions of our time was a priceless experience and will continue to benefit my personal development as a allied health professional. I am so honored to be an alumnus from the SPHPC and to have the opportunity to represent the great work that is going on in Hong Kong as I continue to pursue further education and a career in the U.S and abroad.
Dr. Kevin HUNG
Graduate of MPH
Resident, Accident Emergency Department, Prince of Wales Hospital
“What I treasure most is the opportunity to make connections with local and international public health experts. In my field practicum, I participated in the Sichuan earthquake relief work as a volunteer field doctor in June 2008. I was able to put the theoretical knowledge into real context for understanding the health needs post disaster. It has shaped my view and enthusiasm towards humanitarian relief work. My second practicum involved in a project evaluation team for the neonatal intensive care unit work of Children’s Medical Foundation. Under the guidance of Prof Emily Chan, I got to learn how to conduct evaluation in NGO health related programs, and to understand the current neonatal care in resource deficit settings in China. MPH has broadened my horizon and provided me with valuable opportunities.”
