Research interests or career goals
After working at UNAIDS in Switzerland and at the UN office in Belarus, and gaining experience in both the private and governmental sectors, I aspire to advance my professional career in the realm of NGOs as a public health researcher.
Why I chose LSHTM/my programme
The MSc in Public Health by Distance Learning has been my lifelong dream since my school days. I have dedicated many years to pursuing this goal, and I am truly happy and fulfilled to have finally achieved this opportunity. Even though it is distance learning, it is a suitable form of education for international students, allowing them to stay with their families in their home countries while remaining connected to their workplaces and familiar environments. At the same time, the blended learning opportunity makes a significant contribution to helping distance students feel part of the environment with their peers, faculty, and university life as a whole. Additionally, it is a great honor for me to be a student at LSHTM, recognized as one of the world鈥檚 leading universities in Public Health.
Extra information
I find inspiration in the idea that every day of learning at LSHTM, known as an internationally acknowledged leader in education, offers exceptional opportunities to expand my knowledge and experience in public health while cultivating the skills necessary for a successful career in this field.
