Graduates share their thoughts on the ceremony and their experience of the EID Master program

 

“I think, like everyone else, I feel proud, it’s an important step in life, I’m very happy to have shared this year with my fellow students and the teaching team; and to be able to celebrate today with them, and surrounded by my loved ones!

It’s a master’s degree that enables us to tackle important themes for tomorrow’s world, particularly in the world of research and public health, such as the notion of ”One Health”, which we tackle in all its aspects in this master’s degree. I would recommend this Master’s program, which made me realize that I wanted to go into public health. I’m now doing an internship at the Ministry of Health’s health crisis center as part of a second Master’s degree in management of exceptional health situations, where I’m focuses on epidemic issues linked to the transmission of viruses by insects.”

EID graduate now doing a second Master in public health management

I feel really happy and really grateful for having this opportunity!

I would advise to other students to not be afraid of doing it! It’s not a secret that coming as a foreigner can be a challenge. There are different things that you can find difficult like the language, the adaptation… it’s all a process! But at the end, it’s worth the effort! I am now doing a PhD on infectious diseases focused on the monkey pox virus and the knowledge I learnt in this master program is really helpful in my research.

“I feel happy and proud. It’s been a really great year, with some wonderful encounters !

This master’s program offers a wide range of teaching units, which allows you to discover several disciplines. It’s also a great opportunity to meet people from very different backgrounds. Following this program, I attend my fourth year of medicine. I also chose this Master’s degree because of its complementarity with medicine. Indeed, the clinical approach of medicine complements the EID approach, which is more focused on research and the study of bacteria and viruses in themselves.”
