Your future
Epidemiologists are currently in high demand, and this is only expected to continue. Epidemiologists typically work in a variety of settings, such as:
- governmental bodies
- non-profit organisations
- universities or other research institutes
- public health services
- clinical or biomedical centres
- pharmaceutical companies
- academic hospitals, etc.
After I studied Medicine in Nijmegen and worked some time as an assistant physician, I started as a PhD candidate. I chose to follow the master’s programme in Epidemiology during my research because it helped me to understand the concepts of clinical epidemiology. For physicians like me, the master’s programme adds a lot of extra scientific knowledge that has become increasingly important for evidence-based medicine used in clinical practice.
