Alumni Association

The Rutgers School of Public Health Alumni Association (SPHAA) was formalized in 2009 with the first Governing Board elected in 2010. All graduates of Rutgers School of Public Health, as well as the former New Jersey Graduate Program in Public Health and the UMDNJ-School of Public Health, are automatically members of this association. In addition to supporting the school's mission, the SPHAA encourages partnership, stimulates interest, and promotes communication among and between alumni, the school, and the local, state, and global public health communities.

Among other areas, SPHAA aims to:

• promote and strengthen camaraderie among alumni and between alumni and the School of Public Health;
• promote the pursuit of alumni careers as a lifelong learning process; and
• support students with scholarships and mentoring including fieldwork, employment opportunities, and perspectives of the public health professional.

Anyone interested in becoming involved in SPHAA should contact Dr. Bernadette West at westbm@sph.rutgers.edu or Sarah Kelly, Graduate Practicum Coordinator, at kellysw@sph.rutgers.edu.
