国内top2医学院八年制临床 明年毕业 GPA：90+（百分制） T：    102（24+25+26+27） G：    480+800+4.0（悲剧。。。） 科研：参与过一个职业卫生方面的小题，一个临床流行病方面的题          实验室经历4-5个月（肿瘤分子生物学方面），后面还会在实验室9个月          国内核心期刊综述一篇，暂无论著 出国经历：美国UCSF交换生2个月 课外活动：做过学生红十字组织，采访过几位院士，还有其他一大堆活动和奖 各种各样的原因，想放弃临床了（具体原因不说了，大家也别劝我了，当然毕业前工作也还是要找的）。想出国读流行病PhD。 1.请牛人帮忙定位 2.全奖有没有希望 3.毕业后在米国除了做Post doc，还有什么其他出路吗？ 十分感谢！

八年制的话，在我看来楼主这个条件申公卫的PHD完全没有问题，就看学校和奖了……

谢谢啊~
如果是在加拿大呢？据猜版说，流行病的PhD在加很难就业。Canadasnail知不知道流行病PhD在加的就业情况？多谢：）

今天收到Vanderbilt University 流行病学PhD的招生介绍信，大家说说这个学校的流行病学怎么样啊（ps：我是药学的，一点也不懂流行病学。。。）

It seems you do not have a master's degree in public health, it is harder to find fellowship in the US for ph. d in epidemiology even if you have MD degree. ph.d program in epidemiology usually requires that you have relavant research experience in epi, and data analysis using SAS, or STATA, or R.

you have strong GPA so maybe you can try universities like USC, florida, et al. I would also suggest you to retake GRE, GRE is much important when your GPA has already reached a certain level.

the overall raking should be Research, GRE, GPA; this means only if you have reasonable GPA should be ok.

I got my master's epidemiologic training in Canada, it is not very hard to find a job with a ph.d in epidemiology.  In summary, ph.d in epidemiology in the US is hard to get a full support, my freinds and I experienced this last year and we shared similar feeling that only few spots are available.

Good luck! Success belongs to those who try it.

多谢Jessica。
最近又看了一些学校的要求，觉得直接申PhD确实没有什么优势，正在考虑先申master（不过在米国master的钱就更少了。。。加拿大会好些吧），不知申master会不会更容易申到好学校（相对于申PhD）？
GRE应该是没时间重考了，我想，只能先这么凑合着用了。。。
Jessica知不知道Epi的PhD在加拿大一般找到的都是什么类型的工作呢？（在没有身份的情况下）
再次感谢：）

加拿大有没有身份 做的工作都一样
区别在于找不找得到
phd一般就是做研究 在学校里 公司里 医院里 或者政府里
如果你能拿到工作 这都是好工作
关键是不容易拿到

嗯，谢谢猜猜。
明白了，这个问题就是这样了，纠结也木有用了。

I am a ph.d student in this program and I like it. It intergrates research into course work. Every program has its uniqueness, advantages but also disadvantage. Depend on which area you want to value more

sophiatijUID: 2489545

The epi program in Canada, whatever master or ph.d, it is hard to get full funding. You can try Alberta or Calgary university if you want to apply master in epi;  toronto and McGill seldom provide no funding to master. Canadian universities are all public, so it is harder for them to accept international students compared with that in the US.

If you try masters in the US, you would have more chance to be admitted. Funding is really hard, but USC, Florida, Minnesoda seem to offer some funding  and chance seems to be high for phd in these schools (not sure about master) . Other schools have funding for ph.d but the competition is fierce.

Guessy has already answered you about epi jobs in Canada.
