Hey good people, I graduated with a masters in health economics in 2020 but didn't get into the field afterwards. Now, I am struggling to find employers who will/are willing to employ graduates with little to no experience.

Hi, I’m hoping for some advice or reflections from this community, thanking you in advance! I’m based in the UK and I have a masters in health economics. I quickly went down the public sector route as more of a generalist economist with a health economics background. I’ve carried out cost benefit analysis and cost effectiveness analysis but the more technical modelling components e.g. the modelling that determines likely utility changes was always carried out by academics.

Hi all! I am about 3 months away from graduating from UNC Chapel Hill with a BS in Economics and a BA in Medical Anthropology.

I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Economics in December 2023. Took a while, but I found a position at a very large health firm in the Northeast. My job title is "Business Assistant" for a department related to staffing and some data. If I were to stick with this firm and go back to college for a masters in health economics, would it be possible to move up internally to something that relates to health econ? submitted by /u/No-Cut-3517 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi! I am public health practitioner that is eager to learn new things that could be applied in my day-job. I am looking for some good reading about things like optimizing waiting-line or prioritizing patients.
