The MPH@Baylor Graduate Project:
The MPH@Baylor Graduate Project is an experiential-learning experience that allows students to develop and refine their professional skills, mature through “lessons learned,” and gain confidence through their accomplishments with community organizations and agencies. Through this culminating experience, students gain important perspectives about leadership, ethics, and public health from the professionals who mentor them through the experience.
Graduate Project Oral Presentation:
The Graduate Project Oral Presentation is the final component of the Graduate Project. This experience provides students with an opportunity to present deliverables achieved to their committees as well as to MPH@Baylor faculty, staff, and students. Students present on the work that they accomplished, connecting the deliverables to community and public health competencies, as well as valuable lessons learned during their time with the agency.
Register to Attend a Graduate Project Oral Presentation:
Current MPH@Baylor students can register to sit in on a Graduate Project Oral Presentation. To register, complete the online registration form associated with the presentation that you wish to attend. When registering, please provide your Baylor email address. Registration for each presentation closes 24 hours before the presentation begins. Once registered, students will receive a calendar invitation with the Zoom meeting link.
