Testimonial_HCOPHEnvironment_McKenzieCowlbeckMPH

You don’t need to leave Oklahoma to receive a phenomenal public health education. Hudson College had everything I needed in a public health program to thrive during and now after school. The professors are so knowledgeable and are great teachers, the staff is endlessly supportive, and Hudson College offers accredited and rigorous coursework that prepared me to enter and succeed in the workforce after graduating.
