Ph.D. Careers

About two-thirds of all HSOP graduates have careers in academic institutions either as faculty or as researchers. Those not in academic institutions generally work in federal and state government agencies or in the private sector in non-profit research organizations, health care delivery organizations, and consulting groups. Recent HSOP alumni currently occupy the following positions:.

  • Faculty and researchers at institutions such as Johns Hopkins University, University of North Carolina, Cornell University, Duke University, Pennsylvania State University, University of Washington, University of Illinois at Chicago, Trinity University, University of Kentucky, University of Iowa, University of Florida, and Taiwan University.
  • Researchers in organizations such as Kaiser Permanente, the Henry Ford Health Care System, the Veterans Administration, and other professional organizations.
  • Policy analysts in federal and state governments throughout the nation.
  • Researchers in contract research firms such as RAND, Medstat, Mathematica, and Abt Associates, Inc.

In short, the market for University of Michigan HSOP graduates has historically been strong, and current evidence indicates a continued high demand for graduates of the program.
