A public health major can open the door to other roles based on your passions and goals. For example, if you love technology and statistics, you may want to go into health informatics. If you like the idea of working for a non-profit organization or the government, you may be interested in public administration or health administration careers. And if you’re interested in direct patient care, there is always nursing. Just keep in mind that you may need to earn a higher degree to enter certain fields.
