Both are great programs. Along with the London School, probably the 3 best.

Harvard excels in intnl management, humanitarian studies, human rights, etc.

Hopkins is very strong in epi / stats.

Can't go wrong either way.

What is your international health focus of interest?

Management... but i want to be more of the person who goes into the field... see what needs to be done to better health care and delegate, supervise people to do it. does it make sense? of course stats and epi are important but i don;'t think i want it to be the pith of my work.. I don't want to do epi research. i think i need to talk more to people once i am in the school... and act fast so that i am in the right environment. Its a bit hard for me to exactly say the area i know i have to decide fast otherwise i won't get much from my master... anyway thank you for your input

Are you talking about the MHS program in International Health? I've heard that an MPH is much more "marketable" than an MHS. So although I was accepted to JHU's MHS program in Intl Health, I'm probably going to go to Columbia or BU for an MPH program in Intl Health.
