Two students in the Master of Public Health (MPH) program at The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice at the Giesel School of Medicine have been named This Is Public Health (TIPH) Ambassadors for 2022-2023 by the Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health (ASPPH). Nominated by their institutions, students who participate as ambassadors help raise awareness about the field of public health through a number of activities. These include leading virtual events, managing the TIPH social media accounts, and contributing to projects and presentations to assist in the growth of interest in public health education and careers. “I have been following ASSPH’s This is Public Health social media for some time now, and it has encouraged me to advocate for the importance of bringing people together for the common good,” she says. “We are beyond excited that Amber and Brandon have been selected as ambassadors for this year,” says Craig Westling, DrPH, executive director of education for The Dartmouth Institute.
