the reviewers are trying to determine whether you understand what a career in public health would entail and whether you are committed to that path.

also, your career plans would allow them to determine whether their program would suit your aspirations. if you are considering work in nutritional epidemiology and most of their ongoing research is in infectious disease, then you might not be a good fit.

finally, they want to know if you are able to organize your thoughts in a cohesive manner. if you can't string two sentences together, they won't want you in their program.

i'm also looking at epidemiology programs! best of luck!

Well, if you want to study epi, you sohuld know that true epi work entails a lot of statistics (we are underglorified number-crunchers). In my work, I focus on disease surveillance and outbreak investigation.

First, find an area that interests you. In my case, I *love* infectious diseases (did my thesis on STDs, but now working foodborne illnesses). But some people love diabetes or cancer research. Other people like genetics. Or HIV. Or Drug prevention. That's up to you to choose, but let your essay be flexible enough that you are willing to study outside your field of interest.

Then you talk about what aspects of epi and overall public health that you really like. Field work? Stats and math? Disease surveillance? Program and policy planning? Outbreak investigation? Clinical trials? Personally, I *love* doing outbreaks, and I talked about outbreaks and filed work in my essay.

And tie it into current events to show that you are aware of public health issues. If you are into HIV epi, then read up on current trends in HIV. If you are into diabetes research, then read about fitness and obesity. If you are into biotech and pharma, read about clinical trials.

Keep it to about one page in length. Use the right terminology (God help you if you mix up prevalence and incidence!). and sound confident, earnest and interested.

Good luck, and congrats on choosing epidemiology!

Impress them with your wonderful ability to spell.

Just kidding, but when you do decide to type up your essay do us all a favor and spellcheck it. You're gonna need it based on this post.
