How to get into Johns Hopkins fully-funded Public Health PhD

JHU is perhaps the most prominent public health PhD program in the world, and getting in here changes lives.

From public health, to non profit, to biotech, Biak realized she would need a higher degree to keep all her opportunities open in research. Johns Hopkins has many options for PhDs in public health (ie, biostatistics, international health, etc.), and figuring out which area to pitch her research ideas made all the difference. She used the FearlessGrad strategy to determine exactly which program was the ideal fit for her.
