If you're a fresh graduate in Dentistry and considering studying abroad, both the Master of Public Health (MPH) and Master of Health Administration (MHA) are strong options, each with unique benefits.
An MPH focuses on public health policies, epidemiology, community health, and preventive care, making it ideal if you're interested in public health initiatives or research. An MHA is more management-oriented, focusing on the administrative side of healthcare services, hospital management, and policy implementation. MHA could be a good choice if you aim to lead or manage healthcare organizations.
