Twelve OSU DVM and MPH students traveled to Atlanta to explore career opportunities at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Dr. Amanda Berrian leads student trip to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta.

“The OSU-CDC Visit Day is such a unique opportunity because it is specifically created with our students’ background and professional goals in mind. OSU alumni who are now in positions at CDC, namely Drs. Sherry Burrer and Mark Laughlin, helped us create an agenda that provided a comprehensive yet intimate look at careers and training opportunities with the CDC. The OSU focus provided networking and engagement opportunities not otherwise possible with larger events, and the inclusion of veterinary and public health students emphasized the One Health concept that will shape their careers,” said Berrian.
