There are many ways to connect with us and learn what life is like for a public health student at the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Visit our campus and go on a tour, make a one-on-one appointment with an admissions representative, speak with a current student ambassador, or attend a virtual information session. Feel free to sign up for our mailing list so you don't miss an upcoming admissions event.
Meet With Us
We hold monthly On-Campus Information Sessions, which include a presentation of the program offerings and tips on how to navigate the application process. You will have an opportunity to meet and speak with Faculty and/or Administrative Staff from the Graduate Program in Public Health.
Can’t make it to campus? Connect with us online by attending a Virtual Information Session, which includes the same information presented in the On-Campus Information Sessions. Virtual Information Sessions are typically held every two weeks.
